Lifestyle and home remedies - Dizziness

If you experience dizziness, consider these tips:

Be aware of the possibility of losing your balance, which can lead to falling and serious injury.

Fall-proof your home by removing tripping hazards such as area rugs and exposed electrical cords. Use nonslip mats on your bath and shower floors.

Sit or lie down immediately when you feel dizzy.

Avoid driving a car or operating heavy machinery if you experience frequent dizziness.

Use good lighting if you get out of bed at night.

Walk with a cane for stability.

Avoid using caffeine, alcohol and tobacco. Excessive use of these substances can restrict your blood vessels and worsen your signs and symptoms.

Work closely with your doctor to manage your symptoms effectively.
