Feeling dizzy occasionally may not always be serious, but repeated episodes of dizziness or spinning sensation should never be ignored. Many people dismiss vertigo as weakness, stress, dehydration, or low blood pressure without understanding that the underlying causes of dizziness and vertigo could be neurological.
When your vestibular system (the inner ear balance center) or the neurological pathways connecting it to the brain are disrupted, it skews your spatial awareness. Doctors across India are observing a rise in patients where chronic imbalance is directly linked to central nervous system disorders rather than simple fatigue.
Dr. Rahul Chawla, Consultant Neurologist at ISIC Multispeciality Hospital, Vasant Kunj, says prolonged dizziness affecting daily life should always be medically evaluated.
