I'm hearing this strange sound, like breathing, coming from my left ear. I tried holding my breath, but the sound didn't stop. What could this be? Should I be worried?

I've been having vertigo episodes and I'm confused about whether to see an ENT specialist or a neurologist or maybe both - can you help me understand which symptoms would require which doctor? Also is vertigo dangerous or something that can cause long-term harm? And is it usually treated with medications or are there specific exercises that help - would I ever need surgery for this condition?

Vertigo can be caused by inner ear issues (like BPPV or vestibular neuritis), in which case an **ENT** is ideal. If symptoms include double vision, weakness, or numbness, a **neurologist** should be consulted. Most vertigo is not dangerous or long-term and improves with **medications and vestibular exercises**; surgery is rarely needed and only in specific conditions like severe Meniere’s disease.

What could be going on, and what should I do next?
