Detailed Answer:
Hii. There may be many reasons for your symptoms. This may be due to medical or ent causes. In ear problems like menieres disease there is fullness of the ear and hearing loss and giddiness during such episode. This may be due to postural hypotension where there is sudden fall of blood pressure on standing with short period of unconsciousness also. This can also take place due to some cardiac problems where there may be short period of unconsciousness. It can be due to neurological problem as any cerebral circulation failure. So you please need to consult an Ent surgeon and a general physician to come to a diagnosis. The treatment will be according to the diagnosis. Please review if you have any queries.
