What Causes Dizziness And Nausea With A Broken Ankle?
My husband broke his ankle 8 days ago. He has a cast and although no op is required he has been experiencing extreme dizziness to the point of vomiting when he attempts to get up out of bed. he is due to have a scan today to check for Dvt as a result of the break but wondered if you had any thoughts. I have just had a baby so could really do with him being a little more mobile to help with our toddler and everyday life!

Hello,
Extreme dizziness with vomiting after a episode of injury. Be careful, this can be due to:
- Due to medicines which he is taking
- Injury to his head (Loss of consciousness, dizziness, ENT bleed and headache are symptoms of head injury). I shall advise you to consult to your doctor without taking much time.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
