Hello and Thanks for posting your query on Healthcaremagic.

Based on the symptoms it looks to you are suffering from vertigo. If you have dizziness with change of head position or posture lasting few seconds with or without tinnitus and hearing problems suggests ear related problem. If you have associated headache may be due to migraine.

You can use medications like cinnarizine, betahistine and prochlorperazine for immediate relief. You need to see a Neurologist and ENT specialist for evaluation and management of vertigo.

Wish you good health.

Sincerely,
