Hello,

Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.

I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.

Its difficult to understand what you doctor meant by "just a growth in the head from below". You should certainly get a CT scan head done to identify if there is any injury to the brain.
Balance is a function of inner ear, brain and cerebellum. If there is trauma or illness to any of the parts then it will lead to imbalance.

Hope I am able to answer your concerns.

If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.

In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:

Wish you good health,

Kind regards
