Unang hakbang

For vertigo first aid, sit or lie down, keep your head still, prevent falls and seek urgent help for neurological warning signs. In Tagalog, vertigo may be described as pakiramdam na umiikot ang paligid or nahihilo na parang umiikot ang mundo.

Ano ang maaaring nararamdaman

Vertigo is more than ordinary light-headedness: the person may feel the room turning, the body swaying, or being pulled to one side. Nausea, pagsusuka, ringing in the ear and difficulty walking may occur. A short spell after turning in bed can occur with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Ear pressure or hearing changes can accompany Meniere's disease, and headache or light sensitivity can accompany migraine. These patterns guide assessment, but the symptom by itself does not name the cause.

Mga gagawin agad

Tulungan ang tao na umupo o humiga sa ligtas na lugar. Ilayo ang mga bagay na maaaring matapakan, huwag siyang paakyatin sa hagdan, at huwag siyang hayaang magmaneho. Panatilihing mabagal ang paggalaw ng ulo at katawan. Magbigay ng maliliit na lagok ng tubig kung kaya niyang lumunok at hindi patuloy ang pagsusuka. Isulat kung kailan nagsimula, gaano katagal, ano ang ginawa bago ito, at kung may sakit ng ulo, pagbabago sa pandinig o pamamanhid.

Kailan kailangan ng agarang tulong

Tumawag sa emergency services kapag may panghihina o pamamanhid sa isang bahagi, tabingi ang mukha, hirap magsalita, bagong double vision, matinding biglaang sakit ng ulo, pagkahimatay, pananakit ng dibdib o hindi makalakad nang ligtas. Magpatingin agad kung may biglang pagkawala ng pandinig, pinsala sa ulo, lagnat, tuloy-tuloy na pagsusuka o lumalalang sintomas.

Mga tanong sa doktor

Magtanong kung kailangan ng pagsusuri sa tainga at balanse, kung may gamot na maaaring nagpapalala ng hilo, at kung ang Epley Manoeuvre ay angkop para sa posisyong nagdudulot ng sintomas.
