Common Questions and Answers about Neck pain causes dizziness

neck

Avatar f tn If you use computer a lot or read a lot then the symptoms of headache, dizziness, neck pain, numbness etc could be due to compression of the spinal nerves in the cervical spine region. This can happen due to overuse of computers, work involving straining of neck, herniated disc, canal stenosis, bone disease, spondylosis, poor posture etc. A MRI of the cervical spine and nerve conduction studies may be required. Please consult a neurologist.
Avatar f tn HI and welcome to the Gerd forum. It is possible to go thru what I call flares where the gerd is worse than at other times......U did not mention if u r on meds or if u were seen by a GI dr. U really should not self medicate and should have a dr oversee ur care....in the meantime u can take some OTC meds and watch ur diet. We have a section called Health Pages which has a list of foods to avoid and foods that r safe for people with gerd. U will have to see what is better for u ....
1458799 tn?1328757528 That being said, both symptoms can be exacerbated by the other. You get neck pain, it makes you anxious, which causes dizziness. You get dizzy, which causes more anxiety, muscle tension...with a result of more neck pain. See? It's just a theory, but that's my guess. Kalie made some great suggestions. While I'm not always a huge fan of chiropractic medicine, they have come a long way and help a lot of people. Massage therapy would also be an EXCELLENT thing to try.
Avatar m tn Can anybody help me? I am a 17 year old male, that is 5'8" and weighs about 144 pounds. For the past week, I thought I was getting sick. I thought I was getting the Flu, Stomach Virus, a Cold, ECT. About two days later, I've been getting chest pain, dizziness, left arm pain, sometimes both arms, shoulder pain, shortness of breath, feeling weak, and not hardly been able to sleep lately. Like I said, I thought I was coming down with the Flu or something.

Avatar f tn Patients with dizziness due to neck pathology (cervicogenic dizziness) often complain of dizziness that is worse with particular head movements and when the head is maintained in one specific posture for prolonged periods. Neck pain and a headache in the occipital region (the back of the head above the neck) may be associated with the dizziness. The dizziness may last minutes to hours after assuming certain head positions.
Avatar f tn precipitation of head pain by neck movement or awkward neck positions, head pain when external pressure is applied to the neck or occipital region (as it sounds like is the case in you), restricted range of motion of the neck, and neck, shoulder and arm pain. Treatment for cervicogenic headache includes physical therapy, medications including anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs such as ibuprofen), muscle relaxants, behavioral therapy, and other modalities.

Avatar n tn There are two possible causes. One is that when TMJ is inflamed inner ear is affected causing dizziness. The second possible cause is inflammation of the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) involved in TMJ and chewing. You had MRIs—was MRI of cervical spine done. Pinched nerve can be a cause too. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar n tn If by dizziness you mean vertigo (room-spinning), the causes could be either the inner ear or the brain. Inner ear causes of vertigo most commonly include benign positional vertigo (BPPV), which is due to small particle in the inner ear that moves out of place, and can be repositioned with simple head maneuvers. The symptoms often include vertigo that occurs with turning of the head, often while turning over in bed.

Avatar f tn There are several causes of vertigo, one of which is cervicogenic vertigo. As you know, dizziness can have many causes. Vertigo, or "room-spinning dizziness" can be caused by several different types of inner ear problems and less commonly from central nervous system diseases. Cervical disease (such as a herniated disc in the cervical (neck) region or arthritis of the spine) can cause vertigo, though this is not common.
Avatar f tn Triliptol causes easy bruising or bleeding, unusual weakness, mild nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea; tremors, blurred vision, dizziness, skin rash as its side effects. What is this knot like feeling in the back of neck you have been talking about? This has to be seen and evaluated by a doctor. It can be due to any muscular sprain, trauma, pinched nerve or cervical sp[obndylitis.It may or may not be related to Triliptol.Only a complete clinical examination can confirm the cause.

Avatar f tn Can't figure out what's going on or what to do terrible neck pain foggy headed lightheaded dizziness not really any vertigo to speak of head just feels detached and funny please help
Avatar m tn t go directly from lying to standing, sit there for a minute before standing, it will help eliminate the dizziness. The back/neck pain is probably unrelated to the low BP. Try changing the position you sleep in to alleviate the pain. If your symptoms continue or worsen, go to your Dr. to rule out other more serious conditions.
Avatar n tn Pls get HB and peripheral blood film done to rule it out. Important causes of dizziness include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) or hypotension (low blood pressure) .Pls get yourself evaluated for that also. Some other causes of dizziness are dehydration, infections,TIA,inner ear diseases,endocrine disorders like thyroid, adrenal glands, and pituitary gland disorders,anxiety and panic attacks,blood pressure medications,pain relievers and some antibiotics.
Avatar f tn What does it mean to have massive pain in the back of your head and neck that also causes dizziness and slight fainting?
Avatar m tn A month after discontinuation of the ointment, started getting head aches and dizziness(no vertigo). With advil/aleve medication, pain and dizziness subsided. 2 weeks later dizziness came back with a vengeance. Will be doing an MRI. Did the steroid treatment expose an underlying dormant issue or its overuse is the cause for the dizziness. Can anyone give an answer to the problem or throw some light. Thanks.
Avatar f tn I sometimes feel heavyheadedness as if there is pus filled in around my brain, which causes me dizziness and more pain on leaning, moving, and bending but i am alright over the next day. I wish to know what may be the reason causing it. Can anyone tell?
