When it comes to the disease of otolithiasis, it has been giving our family a hard time lately. A while ago, my father suddenly woke up in the morning and said he was too dizzy to stand up, and was accompanied by a feeling of nausea. Because my dad is over fifty years old, we were worried that he had a brain bruise or some other serious disease. So we felt like going to the hospital and hanging out in the emergency room, and did a nuclear magnetic and brain CT, which showed that there was no blood clot inside the brain or any other symptoms of brain hemorrhage. At this time the doctor suggested that we go to the ENT department to check for otolithiasis, and it turned out that what my dad had, was really otolithiasis. So what are the specific symptoms of otolithosis?

The main symptom of otolithiasis is sudden dizziness. When my dad got this problem, he suddenly woke up one day and got dizzy without knowing what was going on. According to my dad's description, he was suddenly dizzy, as if he had entered a kaleidoscope. Another symptom of otolithiasis is nausea and vomiting. Probably because of the vertigo, so the onset of the disease, but also particularly want to vomit nausea.

But fortunately, it is a benign and curable condition. As long as the diagnosis of otolithiasis is confirmed, the treatment is relatively simple. There are many ways to treat otolithiasis, and for mild cases like my dad's, I was only given an antiemetic and a vertigo medication, which he took for about a week before he was completely fine.

Otolithiasis is not a serious disease, it is the onset of the symptoms are more frightening, so that the patient's psychology to produce a huge fear. The disease can come on suddenly, so if you experience sudden dizziness and nausea, go to the hospital right away to confirm the diagnosis. Although otolithiasis is not a serious disease, it is a serious life threatening condition that should be taken seriously. If you happen to accidentally fall down or something when you have vertigo, it's easy for a small problem to become a big problem.
