Child Complaining Of Head Spinning In Circles. Reason ?

my six year old son has started complaining that his head is spinning in circles the last three days. he is 4ft tall, 94#, in 1st grade and gets lots of excersize each day. He has never had ear infections, had his eyes checked this summer and is generally pretty healthy - very seldom sick.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

An individual can have such a problem and is known as vertigo. It is advised that you get your son examined by an ENT doctor who shall examine the middle ear and other neurological cause of this problem. Appropriate medication will help control this spinning feeling.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your son an early recovery.

Regards,
