Hi
Those can be due to the variations in the blood pressure to the brain, either positional or due to the neck movements.
Pleade go ahead for carotid doppler to rule out for the blood flow,
The other reasons can ne due to vertibrobasilar insufficiency or any ear problems or any metabolic (food ) related, or cervical spondylitis
Please get evaluated for this
Take care.
