Simți cum se învârte totul cu tine deși nu te miști? Medicul neurolog explică de ce vertijul poate reprezenta o urgență medicală

Vertigo, a sensation of spinning or imbalance, is increasingly reported and can indicate serious medical conditions. Factors like sedentary lifestyle and stress contribute to its prevalence. Neurologist Dr. Andrei Mocanu Aursulesei explains that vertigo is a symptom rather than a diagnosis, often linked to various conditions, including migraines and neurological disorders. It requires a multidisciplinary approach for accurate diagnosis, as it can stem from vestibular, neurological, cardiovascular, or psychological origins. Sudden, intense vertigo may signal a stroke, necessitating rapid evaluation and imaging to prevent serious outcomes. Early diagnosis is crucial, especially in patients with chronic conditions.
