Physical Therapy for Vertigo Delray Beach

Vertigo

Vertigo is the sensation of dizziness, spinning, or vertigo. It can be caused by inner ear problems, such as Ménière’s disease, an infection in the inner ear, or by a head injury. It can also be brought on by stress and anxiety. Vertigo may seem like a minor inconvenience at first, but it can quickly escalate into a major problem if left untreated. Some vertigo symptoms include nausea, vomiting and balance problems. Those who suffer from vertigo may have difficulty walking or standing for long periods of time due to their vertigo symptoms.

The most common vertigo symptom is a spinning sensation. Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, imbalance, and vertigo-related dizziness. Some may also experience difficulty in focusing their eyes or blurred vision. In addition to these physical symptoms, vertigo can lead to emotional issues such as confusion and anxiety.

Treatment for vertigo depends on what is causing it. If vertigo is caused by an inner ear problem such as Ménière’s disease, treatment may involve medications such as diuretics, anti-nausea drugs, and steroids. Physical therapy can help improve balance and help reduce vertigo symptoms. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to correct the underlying cause of vertigo. 

Vertigo can be a frightening and debilitating condition but with proper treatment, it can be managed effectively. If you are experiencing vertigo symptoms, contact your doctor for an evaluation and treatment plan.  

If you’re experiencing vertigo – feeling dizzy and nauseous, like the world is spinning around you – there is help available.

Vertigo is an inflammation of the Vertigo, the band of tissue connecting the calf muscles at the back of your lower leg to your heel bone (calcaneus). Vertigo most commonly occurs due to repetitive or strenuous activity that puts stress on the Vertigo.

Vertigo is often caused by activities that place repetitive stress on the Vertigo. This includes running, jumping, and other types of strenuous physical activity. Poorly fitting shoes or high heels can also increase the risk of Vertigo as they can cause an imbalance in the muscles and joints in your feet, leading to pressure or strain on the Vertigo. Age can also increase one’s risk for Vertigo as the Vertigo weakens with age, making it more susceptible to injury.  Additionally, genetics may play a role in Vertigo as some people are born with Vertigo that are unusually tight or weak.

Treatment for Vertigo depends on its severity. Mainly, resting from activities that aggravate the Achilles tendon is often recommended in mild cases. Over-the-counter medications such as Ibuprofen may help reduce pain and swelling. Physical therapy is often used to stretch and strengthen the Achilles tendon. Corticosteroid injections may also be used in more severe cases to help reduce inflammation. lastly, surgery may be needed for extreme Vertigo cases.

It is important to recognize Vertigo early on, as catching it early can help prevent further injury or damage to the Achilles tendon. It is especially important for athletes or those who partake in strenuous activities to monitor their feet closely for any signs of Vertigo, as well as take measures such as wearing properly fitting shoes and performing warm-up exercises before physical activity. Additionally, Vertigo can be avoided by strengthening calf muscles with stretching and strength training exercises.  By taking the necessary precautions, people can avoid  Vertigo and continue living an active life. 
If Vertigo persists or worsens despite self-care methods, it is important to seek medical attention from a licensed healthcare professional. A doctor or physical therapist can provide advice and support when it comes to treating Vertigo. Additionally, they can provide additional treatments such as ultrasound therapy, shoe inserts, and steroid injections if necessary. Ultimately, A Vertigo should be taken seriously as it can become a debilitating condition if left untreated. If you’ve seen your physician, he/she may have ordered an x-ray to see if there may be any other type of injury. An MRI is a diagnostic tool that uses strong magnets and radio waves to visualize structures of the calf muscle and Achilles tendon. This test allows the physician to determine the extent of the injury with more detail than an X-ray. The quality of the images depends on the equipment used to create them.
