Vertigo - The Symptoms

Vertigo is defined as a condition of dizziness of feeling of spinning, or swaying when one is stationary. Dizziness is a general, non-specific term to indicate a sense of disorientation. Some researchers suggested that vertigo is a subtype of dizziness and refers to an erroneous perception of self- or object-motion or an unpleasant distortion of static gravitational orientation that is a result of a mismatch between vestibular, visual, and somatosensory systems, affecting approximately 20-30% of the general population(1) and about two to three times higher in women than in men.

II. Symptoms
A. Eidelman D. in the study of "Fatigue on rest" and associated symptoms (headache, vertigo, blurred vision, nausea, tension and irritability) due to locally asymptomatic, unerupted, impacted teeth" showed that
1. "Fatigue on Rest",
2. headache,  
3. vertigo and the feeling of loss of balance,
4. blurred vision,
5. nausea,
6. tension and
7.  irritability
were found to be prevalent amongst patients who had  locally asymptomatic, unerupted impacted teeth. A comparative pressure sign was developed, which, when positive, confirmed the relationship between the impacted teeth and the medical symptoms. Removal of the impactions resulted in the alleviation of the symptoms. Stress and psychogenic factors are considered as trigger mechanisms, rather than as basic causes of the symptoms(2).

B. Other symptoms
Other researchers indicated that Destructive lesions of labyrinth, or of vestibular tracks, partial or complete.-Heterogeneous stimulations of the paired intact vestibular-end organs.-The hypersensitive labyrinth.-Clinical manifestations of vertigo, associated with nausea, headache, 
8. visual disturbances,
9. nystagmus, 
10. diplopia, 
11. staggering gait,
12. vasomotor and cardio-vascular symptoms, 
13. pallor, flushing,  
14. sweating
15. dyspnoea, 
16. fainting, 
17. vomiting and
