Answers:
There's a difference between vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a sensation of dizziness, faintness, or lightheadedness that results from an impaired sense of balance and equilibrium. A person suffering from vertigo may feel that he is sinking or falling and / or that the room and objects in it are spinning around. Basically, you can't walk a straight line.
Dizziness is not synonymous with vertigo. Occasionally one might experience a feeling of lightheadedness, dizziness, unsteadiness, or the sensation of feeling faint. Those with low blood pressure may have this feeling upon rising quickly from a sitting or lying position. In some cases, dizziness can be a warning sign of a heart attack, stroke, concussion, or brain damage. If you feel dizzy and find it difficult to speak, swallow, or think clearly, seek medical attention. Numbness and tingling or loss of vision accompanied by dizziness also can be signs of a stroke.
Don't put alcohol in your ear, use hydrogen peroxide. Some people have to have their ears professionally cleaned, and I'm one of those. I have to go to my ENT twice a year. You may have some fluid that's gotten down below some impacted wax. Sometimes it'll seem like you're OK and then you'll have vertigo again.
Go to the health food store and get some ginger tablets. Within 30 minutes my vertigo was gone. Nothing the doctor gave me worked. Then I finally had an ENT clean out my ears. Vertigo is a symptom of something, so to just treat the dizziness will not make it go away.
Best wishes. I'm sure it's nothing serious, just wanted to cover all the possibilities.
