Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for your query.
1. Get her Pure Tone Audiogram (PTA) and an Impedance Audiogram(I/A or Tympanogram) done.
2. This will show any hearing loss and changes in middle ear pressures that can cause dizziness.
3. He should be examined by a Neurotologist or an ENT Specialist and a Neurologist.
4. There are many signs such as nystagmus (abnormal eye movements), gait tests, balance tests which need direct observation by the doctor.
5. Does he ever get hurt by the falls? It is unusual for a child to have such severe dizziness and incoordination.
6. A brain MRI, routine blood tests, eye tests and clinical examination notes are important. Upload these test results for further treatment options.
I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any more questions I will be available to answer them.
Regards.
