Hi Dear ,
As per your query you have dizziness , which is known as vertigo and echoing of sound in ear , which is also known as tinnitus . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like low blood sugar level or iron level , TMJ problem , impacted tooth , inner ear infection or condition like meniere's disease . I would suggest you to drink plenty of water , drink green tea thrice a day and take proper rest , Consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan , examine with otoscope , hearing test and rotatory chair test and blood tests . Doctor may prescribe anti emetic drug , antibiotics ( gentamicine ) , anti inflammatory and may recommend vestibular therapy and hearing aid .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
