Problems can include Central Nervous System (Brain) disorders, Vestibular (Inner ear) disorders, Metabolic (for example Diabetes and Thyroid disease) disorders, Infectious (Viral labrynthitis)disorders, and Cardiovascular (Heart and High Blood Pressure) disorders. While many of the potential causes of dizziness can be benign and treatable, dizziness can also be a warning of many other more serious and life threatening disorders and patients should immediately seek an evaluation by their physician to determine the underlying cause for this complaint.
