In a startling revelation, medical experts have raised concerns about the increasing prevalence of vertigo, a debilitating balance disorder, primarily affecting women due to a lack of awareness surrounding this condition. An alarming number of individuals, especially women, are suffering silently, unaware of the available treatments and support. To shed light on this critical issue, Dr Sushrut Deshmukh, ENT specialist, Apollo Spectra Pune, emphasises the importance of awareness and early intervention.
Vertigo, characterised by dizziness, spinning sensations and loss of balance, can have a profound impact on one`s daily life. It often leads to falls, accidents and a diminished quality of life. Women, in particular, are at a higher risk of developing vertigo due to hormonal fluctuations and other factors.
