Had Vertigo And Constant Tingling Sensation In Neck And Scalp. Any Ideas?

XXXXXXX
Thanks for your query.
The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be due to:
1. Any pathology in the vestibular apparatus in inner ear (it is associated with maintenance of body posture & balance)
2. Any fluctuation in blood pressure levels such as Hypotension.
3. Decrease in blood sugar levels (Hypoglycemia)
4. Deficiency of certain nutrients like Iron, Vitamin B 12, Calcium, etc. which also interferes with blood formation & nerve conduction.
5. Tension/stress & lack of adequate rest and sleep.
Investigations like complete blood count, estimation of blood pressure and blood sugar levels will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis.
A CT scan of brain might be required to rule out any pathology.
So, it will be better to consult your General Physician & get a proper physical examination done.
So that appropriate management steps could be taken.
Meanwhile, you should maintain adequate hydration, take a healthy balanced diet & avoid stress.
There is no need to worry, you will be fine.
Wishing you a good health.
Let me know if I need to clarify further.
Thanks & take care.


Thanks for your follow up query.
I appreciate your concern towards healthy lifestyle.
As all your blood parameters are within normal limits, there is no harm in taking anti-inflammatory agents.
Acetaminophen(paracetamol) will be a good choice as it has lesser side effects as compared to other analgesic/anti-inflammatory agents.
As you are stressed, your symptoms might be related to it.
Hope I have been able to answer your query.
Please let me know if you have any other queries.
Regards,
Dr. Polash Sannigrahi
