Question: How long until dizziness associated with a skull fracture goes away!?
I had an accident at the house May 9th and, among other things, I fractured my skull!. I'm still getting very dizzy in the late afternoon to evening time when I move too quickly or go to lay down!. I can handle the pain but the dizziness is driving me insane!. I was wanting to figure out how much longer I'm going to have to put up with it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Likely, your dizziness is not caused by the skull fracture but rather by an injury to the nearby tissue of the brain or ear Dizziness is often related to an imbalance in fluid to the middle ear!. While your body is healing itself, try not to change position too fast, such as rising from a reclining position to sitting or standing!. Change position slowly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
The dizziness is caused by swelling do you still put ice on it!? If not try to ice it for 5 mins at a time when then pain and dizziness is bad !. When I fractured my skull I was dizzy for 3 weeks !. It took 2 months for the pain to subside completely !.Www@Answer-Health@Com
With that kind of injury you should be asking a doctor in a hospital, not the internet! It has something to do with the posibility of concussion and/or DEATH!Www@Answer-Health@Com
