Hello,
It is due to disorders of internal ear mechanisms controlling body balance.
As of now, you can give drugs like Betahistine for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
