Vertigos
Which is vertigos?
Populate who the opinion feels they who ' been annoying '
are referring generally a sensation to give return around or of the
turn. Alternatively, the vertigos can be used to describe a
sensation that is shaken, or a sensation of the weakness, faintness, I
am annoying or unsteadiness. Once in a while, some individuals
say that they have guarded the vision, sensations of unreality,
desmayan themselves, the blackouts or still the epilépticos
adjustments. All these talk about sometimes as ' been annoying
it spelled.
What causes vertigos and who is in the risk?
There are many causes of the vertigos. The
conditions that affect the internal oido one can cause this symptom,
because here it is where the organ of the balance (the labyrinth) is
located; more rarely, the conditions that affect the brain can
also lead to the vertigos. Abnormalitys of the rate or the falls
of the heart in the arterial pressure when being unemployed for above
can cause the sensation of I am annoying. The conditions most
common to affect the vertigos of the internal oido one and the cause
include the disease of Meniere, the ' benign positional vertigo ' and
the ' neuronitis vestibulares, that also is known as ' virales
labyrinthitis and can be from a viral infection of the labyrinth.
Which are the symptoms and the common complications of the
vertigos?
The exact symptoms depend on the real cause of the
vertigos. Patients who cause that the disease of Meniere
describes recurrent, severe attacks of the rotatory vertigos (the
sensation of the turn), known like ' vértigó, and deafness and sound
in the ears. These attacks suddenly go ahead and the hard tin
per minutes to one hour or more of length. They are generally so
severe that the person cannot be shutdown or to walk and can have
nausea and vomit. It can also have a sensation of the fullness
in the ear. The attacks can happen several times to the week by
many weeks in end, or can disappear in his the own ones by several
years.
The benign positional vertigo is another problem of the
internal oido one. The episodes of the rotatory vertigos are
driven when the head of the person moves in specific positions.
It happens generally when lying down in bed or when the head
inclines the other way around. Once in a while, a sudden return
of the head of the person drives the vertigo by some seconds.
This condition is commonest in greater people.
The viral labyrinthitis is a condition that happens mainly
in young adults, although the children and older people can be
affected. He is preceded often by a cold or influenza-like
disease when a heavy sensation of being superior or the balance can be
felt. There is a sudden beginning of the severe vertigo, nausea,
to vomit and of the necessity still to remain. The symptoms last
generally per hours, although they can last once in a while by several
days. This condition thinks to be caused by a viral infection of
the labyrinth.
Very rarely, the tumors that affect the nerve that
provides the internal oido one can cause vertigos. This
condition is associated almost always to deafness in the affected ear.
The vertigos are a common complaint of the people who
suffer of jaqueca (it see the separated card of data).
The rotatory vertigos in greater people can be from the
interruption of the source of the blood to the base of the brain.
They are rare, nevertheless, so that this condition only causes
vertigos and there it is generally other symptoms of the disturbada
function of the brain. Very rarely, the multiple sclerosis can
cause rotatory vertigos in young adults. Nevertheless, other
symptoms of this condition are generally also present.
How the doctors recognize the cause of the vertigos?
The diagnosis of the cause of the vertigos is often made
of the other symptoms associated to the vertigos and of a description
of the been annoying one it spells. The doctor takes well-taken
care of individual to examine the ears and the nervous system of the
person. In a number of people, the tests of the hearing and the
balance are done by a specialist (ENT) of the ear, the nose and the
throat. In rare cases, the explorations of the brain [
tomography computed (CT) and the projection of image of magnetic
resonance (MRI) ] and the electrical recordings of the brain
(electroencefalograma, EEG) can be required to make the diagnosis.
Which is the treatment for the vertigos?
plan of action of the One same-care
If you have benign positional vertigo, simply to
avoid the sudden main movements can be everything that is required to
take care of the condition. Low arterial pressure populates that
when being unemployed can avoid the symptom of the vertigos when this
one happens being stopped for above slowly of a based position or lie.
Medicines
The disease of Meniere can be helped by a called
drug ' betahistiné.
In the patients who have diminished the source of the
blood to the base of the brain that caused vertigos, the aspirin can
be of advantage.
The vertigos caused by viral labyrinthitis can respond to
the injections of the drugs such as prochlorperazine and cyclizine,
that they often improve nausea, to vomit and the vertigos.
The viral labyrinthitis obtains generally better quickly
without the treatment.
Surgery
It is only very rarely the required surgery to
deal with nobodies the causes of the vertigos. Once in a while,
somebody that has disease of very severe Meniere that is not
responding to the drug therapy can benefit from surgery in the
internal oido one to treat the problem.
Which is the result of the vertigos?
The result of the vertigos depends on its cause. The
viral labyrinthitis better obtains in his the own one. The
disease of Meniere is often of always a condition, although it can
solve spontaneously once in a while. The symptoms can often be
controlled well with the medication.
