Contact UsWhat Is Vertigo?
Vertigo is described as a sensation in which you feel like you're spinning or in motion or the environment around you is spinning or in motion. It is often caused by an inner ear problem, like a calcium buildup, or the result of a viral infection, such as labyrinthitis. Meniere's disease, a disorder of fluid buildup and changing pressure in the ear, can also interfere with balance. Canyon View Ear, Nose & Throat provider Dr. Robert D. Pearson specializes in ear conditions and balance disorders. With help from his medical team, he will conduct a health assessment to distinguish between vertigo and dizziness and determine the root cause. Individuals with vertigo or dizziness may frequently experience the following symptoms:
- Disorientation
- Headaches
- Nausea or vomiting
- Fatigue
- Poor balance or frequent falls
- Confusion
- Lightheadedness

How Do We Treat Vertigo?
Vertigo can interfere with driving, working, and day-to-day living, causing falls, which could lead to hip fractures. Treating vertigo depends on what is causing it. Dr. Pearson may recommend canalith repositioning, which is a group of head and body movements that move the calcium particles in the inner ear to other places in the body for reabsorption. He may also recommend some dietary restrictions on alcohol, coffee, and foods that are preserved or processed. Another treatment involves physical therapy or vestibular rehabilitation exercises to help manage dizziness and balance issues. In other cases, medication may be prescribed to relieve the symptoms associated with vertigo, such as nausea or motion sickness. If an infection or inflammation has caused vertigo, then our provider may prescribe antibiotics or steroids to reduce swelling and cure the infection. Diuretics may be another remedy to reduce fluid buildup for those with Meniere's disease.
