Who should we consult first in case of dizziness?
Dizziness can arise from various conditions, so patients often visit neurologists and general practitioners. However, it’s important to remember that the most common cause of dizziness is ear-related disorders. In such cases, you should definitely consult an ENT doctor specialized in Otoneurology to receive accurate diagnostics and effective treatment.
The first and only Otoneurology Center in Azerbaijan was established at LOR Hospital. Here, the diagnostics and treatment of dizziness patients are performed. The center is equipped with a Video Nystagmography (VNG) device, which is used worldwide for vertigo diagnostics. A comprehensive examination, patient history, and VNG results are crucial for accurate diagnosis. All collected data, combined with the device readings, allow for correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
The main cause of ear-related dizziness is often BPPV – benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, which cannot be treated with medication. It is treated using various corrective maneuvers, and symptoms usually disappear within a week.
Advantages of the VNG device:
- It is unique in Azerbaijan and widely used worldwide for dizziness diagnostics.
- Its highly sensitive camera detects any pathological involuntary eye movements, known medically as nystagmus.
