Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Muscle Spasms In The Hands
Question: I've been having dizziness and muscle spasms in hands. Twitching type movements in index finger and and area between thumb and index finger. Dizziness been happening off an on for last few weeks.
Brief Answer:
Supportive care
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Dizziness alone with no other symptom of ear or air ways or any other neurological condition is likely benign and self resolving. It may take a few weeks so all you need is supportive cre with some antivert and measures to prevent fall and tripping to avoid trauma by fall. Using a support specially while leaving the bed or standing from sittign would be great.
As far as spasm in hands is concerned, it could be an age related arthralgia or a neuropathy nutritional or compressive, too early to tell with out doing some work up. get to a doctor, let them examine you, do a complete clinical correlation, run some labs and then only we can have our options and management accordingly.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
