hi welcome,
this giddiness is not related to the old fall
since the giddiness when you are getting up or changing position you just go for blood routine test.
most probably you may have reduced Hb level
do the test and inform me

Hi
Gidiness can be caused by a ear problem if so pls consult your nearest ENT.
Prior to that check your blood for Hb count a reduced Hb can also lead to it which can be well managed by good iron diet. See whether you have a pale eyes
