04 — What to look for
What are you experiencing?
Dizziness
Dizziness is a broad term covering light-headedness, unsteadiness, or a spinning feeling, and can have inner-ear, neurological, or other causes.
Worth a checkDizziness that is sudden, severe, or comes with other symptoms such as weakness or slurred speech needs urgent attention.
Loss of balance
Difficulty keeping steady while standing or walking can stem from the inner ear, nervous system, or other causes.
Worth a checkBalance problems that are new or getting worse, especially with a fall risk, are worth a prompt evaluation.
Spinning sensations
A spinning sensation, often called vertigo, is frequently linked to the inner ear's balance system.
Worth a checkEpisodes that are severe, recurring, or accompanied by hearing changes or nausea are reasons to seek care.
Feeling unsteady
A general sense of unsteadiness, without true spinning, can still affect daily activities and fall risk.
Worth a checkOngoing or worsening unsteadiness is worth a clinical assessment.
How it works
From first visit to a plan
Consult
What it feels like
We go through what the dizziness feels like, how long each episode lasts, what sets it off, and any hearing change or medication that could be involved.
Examination
Bedside and positional testing
A vestibular examination at the bedside, positional testing where the history points to it, and a hearing assessment when it is indicated.
Diagnosis
Peripheral, central, or mixed
You are told plainly which it is and what that means, rather than being handed a label without an explanation.
Treatment
A plan for your cause
Repositioning manoeuvres, vestibular rehabilitation, medical management, or onward referral where the cause sits outside ENT.
Treatments & procedures
Treatment for vertigo and balance conditions is decided after an in-person evaluation, and can range from monitoring and medical management to minor procedures or surgery when appropriate.
