General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Good afternoon. Thanks for the query. I understand your concern about your situation. You have dizziness since riding dirt bike. Associated with neck pain. Most probably its due to muscle spasm. I would suggest you should
1) Take rest. use low height pillow
2) take anti inflammatory like naproxen for 4-5 days
3) Take betahistine for lightheadedness. for one week. You have history of motion sickness in the beginning of this condition. Betahistine will help you in regulating your vestibular system.
I would like to review you after one week. If still you are having same symptoms ,I will further evaluate you in respect with ear( vestibular system) and imaging studies.
Hope this will help you.
