Central Vertigo treatment in Cuauhtémoc

Central vertigo is a type of vertigo whose origin lies in the central nervous system —the brain or the brainstem— and not in the inner ear, so its evaluation focuses on the pathways that process balance.

How it usually presents: a sensation of spinning or imbalance that may be accompanied by other neurological signs, such as changes in vision, speech, or coordination.

When to seek care? If the dizziness is intense, persistent, or associated with neurological symptoms, an evaluation is advisable to differentiate it from ear-related causes.

Which specialist assesses it? The audiologist takes part in the study of balance and hearing and can guide toward the appropriate evaluation of the vertigo's origin. When episodes recur or cause concern, consulting a professional is the best decision.
