Hi welcome to health care magic
You might have low blood pressure or dehydration that leads you for dizziness
Your blood pressure should be checked first for rule out hypotension
Check your random sugar level also for rule out hypoglycemia
Your ear problem and history regarding that should be elicited as it can lead dizziness
Vitamin deficiency and irregular diet sometime also can lead dizziness
According to cause further specific treatment can be given
If still dizziness continues than neurological examination needed
Take care
