Dizziness

Dizziness is a non-specific term describing a range of sensations, including lightheadedness, vertigo, and unsteadiness, often resulting from disturbances in the vestibular, neurological, or cardiovascular systems. It is clinically significant as it can indicate underlying conditions such as vestibular disorders, hypotension, or neurological issues, necessitating thorough evaluation. A key association is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common cause of episodic dizziness linked to changes in head position.
