Detailed Answer:
Hi friend
Welcome to Health Care Magic

At times, deficiency of vitamins and/or rare minerals may be responsible.
Try any Over The Counter multivitamin + mineral tablet…

It may / mat be – related to the pressure… The range for the upper figure (Systolic) is 90 to 140 mm Hg. The range for the lower figure (Diastolic) is 60 to 90 mm Hg.

Ear is often the cause of dizziness. Balancing mechanism is in the inner ear. There are several causes – simple like wax blocking the outer ear or something else inside… See an ENT specialist / get examined; investigated…
If persistent, see a neurologist – MRI and/or MRA may be needed to assess the structure and blood flow…
Prognosis is generally good in such situations…      

Good luck
God bless you
