I've had problems with my balance ever since I was injured in a car accident and needed surgery to repair my hip on the side where my car was hit. I still have issues with my back and neck.
What are some other causes balance disorders?
Balance problems can also be caused by medications, ear infections, a head injury, or anything else that affects the inner ear or brain.
Low blood pressure can lead to dizziness when you stand up too quickly.
Problems that affect the skeletal or visual systems, such as arthritis or eye muscle imbalance, can also cause balance disorders. Your risk of having balance problems increases as you get older.
Unfortunately, many balance disorders start suddenly and with no obvious cause.
Did any of these surprise you about affecting balance?
Talk later,
Terri
