What causes dizziness and how should it be managed?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Huang Shichang
Dizziness may be caused by various factors. Below are potential causes and corresponding management suggestions: Causes: 1. Abnormal blood pressure: Both high and low blood pressure can lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain, resulting in dizziness. 2. Heart disease: Patients with heart disease may experience dizziness due to inadequate myocardial or cerebral blood flow. 3. Cerebrovascular diseases: Conditions such as cerebral ischemia or cerebral infarction directly impair blood supply to the brain, causing dizziness. 4. Cervical spondylosis: This condition may compress nerves or blood vessels, affecting cerebral blood flow and triggering dizziness. Management suggestions: 1. Ensure adequate rest: Avoid excessive fatigue and maintain sufficient sleep. 2. Pay attention to diet: Maintain a balanced intake of nutrients and avoid extreme hunger or overeating.
