Balance is managed by the vestibulocochlear apparatus in our inner ear. So, such vertigo, it is most often due to some problem with the vestibulocochlear apparatus. Such a problem is often due to age related degenerative process.
The first thing to do is to get an ENT opinion and an audiogram done to evaluate the functioning of your inner ear. Certain vestibulocochlear stabilizing agents can be prescribed by your ENT doctor for your relief.
