How Can Vertigo Be Treated While Suffering From A Brain Tumor?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Vertigo in brain tumor may be due to edema of the brain. The tumor or increased intracranial pressure may lead to vertigo and dizziness. It may be treated with steroids and benzodiazepines. Use tablet Vertin for five days. If symptoms not improved, then please consult your neuro physician so that he will examine and treat you accordingly. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
