Patient's question:
2 years ago, my mother was carefully diagnosed with lacunar infarction, and she has had gallstones in addition to recent dizziness and nausea. Hello, is the current condition serious? What should be done?Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of dizziness, mainly including systemic vertigo and non-systemic vertigo. Systemic vertigo is primarily caused by brain inflammation and cervical spine abnormalities. Head-related issues mainly include infarction and tearing of the occupying space, brainstem, and cerebellum. Additionally, cervical spondylosis can also cause vertigo accompanied by nausea. Non-systemic causes include hypertension, anemia, eye diseases, etc. Two years ago, a head CT scan showed, which is commonly seen in people with hypertension, diabetes, or obesity. It is recommended to seek medical attention at a formal hospital for follow-up.
