Introduction
Dizziness, nausea, and the urge to cry may be caused by psychological factors, hypertension, carotid-cavernous fistula, or other reasons, and can be treated through general management, medication, or surgery. Hypertension can cause cerebral blood vessel constriction, thereby affecting blood supply and oxygen delivery to the brain, leading to symptoms such as dizziness and general discomfort. Patients may take spironolactone tablets under the guidance of a physician.
In general, dizziness, nausea, and the urge to cry may be caused by psychological factors, hypertension, carotid-cavernous fistula, or other conditions, and can be treated through general management, medication, or surgery. Specific analyses are as follows:
1. Psychological factors
Frequent emotional fluctuations, anxiety, or depression may disrupt the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, leading to symptoms such as dizziness, palpitations, and gastrointestinal discomfort. It is important to relax and maintain a positive mood—listening to soothing music or taking warm baths can help relieve stress.
2. Hypertension
Hypertension can cause cerebral blood vessel constriction, thereby impairing cerebral blood flow and oxygen supply, resulting in dizziness and general physical discomfort. Patients may take medications such as spironolactone tablets or captopril tablets under medical supervision to alleviate symptoms.
3. Carotid-cavernous fistula
Carotid-cavernous fistula is a relatively rare condition caused by an abnormal connection between the carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. This abnormality may increase blood flow, affecting cerebral perfusion and oxygen supply, leading to symptoms such as headache and vomiting. Patients can be treated with transvenous coil embolization.
Besides the above causes, similar symptoms may also result from moyamoya disease, skull tumors, or intracranial aneurysms. During illness, patients should also maintain a healthy diet and avoid excessive fatigue and stress to promote recovery.
