What Are The Symptoms Of Cervical Vertigo?

I was doing some sweeping of my house yesterday. Ever since the I have been extremely dizzy. I have had at least 9 concussions and have neck issues. I also have 2 buldging discs and have had a compression fracture of my spine. I have done some research and think it could be Cervical Vertigo.

Hi,
From history it seems that this problem might be due to pinched nerve pressure due to problem in your cervical spines.
While giving uneven pressure on neck like sweeping or nodding movement at neck might give pressure causing nerve irritation producing pain or vertigo.
Go for neck exercises, cervical traction, short way diathermy etc.
Avoid putting pillow under the neck while sleeping.
Ok and take care.
