I'm really worried about my mom. She's constantly saying that her head is spinning and I'm wondering if that's something serious. Which type of doctor should we see for this kind of issue?

Your mother may be experiencing vertigo, which is often related to issues with the inner ear or balance. A neurologist or an ENT specialist (Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor) would be the right choice to help diagnose and treat her symptoms.

View allI'm experiencing this weird falling sensation while walking, and it's been going on for about three years now. Along with this, I feel severe anxiety, panic, and stomach discomfort, and I often get dizzy and a bit giddy. Sometimes it even feels like someone is pushing my head forward. It's really gotten to the point where I'm scared to go anywhere because of how uncomfortable all of this is. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on and how I can get rid of these feelings?

Now, it seems to come and go more frequently and isn't going away. What could be causing these pains? Is there something I should be worried about?
