What are the causes of neurological vertigo? Must see

Neurogenic vertigo is a common disease in life. This disease has a great impact on human health. Patients need timely treatment to avoid worsening of the disease. But as the saying goes, "the right medicine can be used for the right disease." So what are the specific causes of neurogenic vertigo?

Causes of peripheral vertigo

(1) Vertigo caused by external and middle ear diseases: such as external ear diseases or blockage of the external auditory canal, perforation of the tympanic membrane due to chronic otitis media, and eustachian

Tube dysfunction, post-mastoidectomy, external ear and middle ear tumors, etc.

(2) Meniere's disease: also known as Meniere's disease, is a persistent inner ear disease.

(3) Vestibular neuronitis: also known as vestibular neuritis, is a disease that invades the peripheral vestibular system without involving the auditory system, brain, and cranial nerves.

(4) Post-traumatic vertigo: vertigo caused by traumatic illness, including trauma to the head, neck, and ears, air pressure injury, acoustic trauma, etc.

(5) Labyrinthine membrane rupture syndrome: rupture of any part of the cochlear window membrane, vestibular window membrane, cochlear duct membrane, membranous labyrinth, etc., causing traffic between internal and external lymph, traffic between cerebrospinal fluid and lymph, and lymph flowing into the middle ear cavity, leading to auditory and vestibular symptoms.

(6) Positional vertigo: benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, ethanol-induced positional vertigo, etc.

(7) Ototoxic drug-induced vertigo: refers to vertigo caused by certain drugs or chemicals that cause labyrinthine poisoning.

(8) Cervical bone diseases: otosclerosis, osteitis deformans.

(9) Motion sickness: motion sickness, seasickness, airsickness, and the dizziness that astronauts experience when they are weightless during astronautics and space travel.

Causes of non-otogenic vertigo

(1) Central vertigo: brain tumors, intracranial infections, cerebrovascular diseases, idiopathic diseases (seen in frontal carbuncle), brain trauma, hereditary diseases, etc.

(2) Cervical vertigo: functional or organic vertigo occurs in the blood vessels, muscles, ligaments, and nerves of the cervical spine and its related tissues.

A syndrome characterized by dizziness caused by changes in

(3) Ocular vertigo: a feeling of instability or disorientation caused by eye disease or visual dysfunction.
