On 3 October, Sankalp Saxena, 31, was out shopping with his family in Jaipur when he felt his head spinning. He felt nauseous and was sweating profusely. It was so severe that he could not walk without support. He returned home, hoping rest would cure it. But it worsened. The next day he was admitted to a hospital, where he underwent a battery of tests. Everything was okay. Then, a neurosurgeon advised an MRI. When that turned out to be clear, he was referred to an ENT specialist who diagnosed vestibular neuritis, a type of vertigo that is caused by a virus infection. Saxena was prescribed medicines and asked to do some specialized exercises at home. He is fine now.
Till then, Saxena hadn’t heard of vertigo, though it’s quite common. If you’re suffering from this imbalance disorder, you essentially feel a sense of rotation, rocking, or the world spinning, even if you’re not moving, and it’s often associated with nausea, vomiting, sweating, a ringing sensation in the ear, difficulty in hearing and loss of coordination during walking. “The frequency of episodes may be once in few weeks to multiple times a day, depending on the underlining cause. The feeling lasts a short time but can be severe, and the symptoms usually last from a few minutes to hours,” says Rahul Gupta, senior consultant, neurosurgery, at the Fortis Hospital in Noida, near Delhi.
