The patient will feel dizzy with everything around him, this condition will increase when turning the head or changing position, in some cases, dizziness accompanied by nausea or vomiting, heart palpitations, nervousness, fear scared, sweaty.
You should see a specialist to find out the cause and have an appropriate treatment plan.
