5. Loss of Balance
The spinning sensation you get from vertigo can put you off-balance and limit your activities. Depending on the cause, a simple move like sitting with your head between your legs can bring quick relief.
The part of the inner ear that is responsible for balance is the vestibular system, and issues with your inner ear cause some balance disorders. Once a doctor diagnoses the cause, a vestibular rehabilitation therapist can develop an individualized treatment plan to correct balance issues.
