What Causes Dizziness And Tingling On Finger Tips?

Get an evaluation by a neurologist
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thank you for using Healthcare Magic. There are many causes for dizziness and many types of dizziness. It is important to know what kind you are experiencing. That will help identify a cause. Vertigo is one type of dizziness that is significant. It creates a kind of off-balance feeling or spinning sensation, often associated with nausea and vomiting. Vertigo is often related to inflammation or other processes in the inner ear. This can occur without actual symptoms in the ear itself. Vertigo can also be caused by problems in certain parts of the brain.
Lightheadedness is a type of dizziness where you feel like you're going to faint. This can be caused by dehydration, blood loss, heart irregularities, and many other conditions.
Dizziness can be temporary and intermittent, and often resolves on its own within a short time. Further evaluation may be needed if it's not going away or is particularly severe.
Because your symptoms are there all day, I think it is important to find out what type of dizziness is occurring and then its cause. The best specialist for this would be a neurologist. They can do a comprehensive neurological exam and also have special types of tests that can distinguish among different types of vertigo and other causes of dizziness. I would avoid taking any medicines to try to control it until it is diagnosed. Best to be seen by a neurologist soon. If you can't get in for awhile (many neurologists don't have openings for weeks), then get a complete evaluation by your regular doctor or an internist.
Hope this helps. If you have further questions, I would be happy to answer them.
