Abstract:Dizziness and vertigo are the most common clinical complaint symptoms. However, clinical diagnosis and treatment are often difficult due to the non-specific symptoms. Detailed medical history collection and systematic physical examination are helpful to determine the location of the lesion, so that the corresponding auxiliary examination can be selected more specifically, the cause of the disease can be identified more effectively, and the correct treatment strategy can be made more quickly. Based on the author's rich clinical experience in the diagnosis and treatment of dizziness/vertigo cases, this article briefly explains the diagnosis and treatment of dizziness and vertigo from the aspects of history taking and physical examination.
