Overcome obstacles
It happens that if a wave covers your head in a dream, then this is a mirror image of obstacles in real life. The higher the crest of the engulfing water rose, the greater the scale of the expected difficulties.
Why else would you have such a dream? According to dream books, a serious problem awaits you in the future, which is almost impossible to resolve. When in a dream you were able to swim out and cope with the elements, then in reality you will overcome any troubles. The water has dragged you to the very bottom - the load of failures is too heavy, you will not cope with the tasks.

“HUMANS AND MICROBES ARE AN INTEGRAL SYSTEM AND IT FUNCTIONS WITH A CERTAIN CYCLICITY”
— Igor Alekseevich, the World Health Organization (WHO) is sounding the alarm: after the easing of quarantine in America, Europe and the Middle East, the incidence of coronavirus has increased sharply.
The total number of infected people in the world is approaching 12 million, but epidemiologists are confident that this is not the limit. Doctors are calling for restrictions to be returned, otherwise a second wave of the pandemic cannot be avoided. How do you feel about this information and calls from WHO? — In your question, I distinguish two parts. The first is the number of infected people, the second is the occurrence of the wave. In relation to people who are sick, taking into account my experience, it is personally unclear to me what it is, because the tests are completely different, and so are the companies that produce them. We have repeatedly made a proposal to create a center for standardization of testing quality control. This structure has not been created. As a result, dozens of companies are doing tests - no one has compared how reproducible they are, how stable they are. Moreover, they say that you need to do three tests: if it happens again in two, then you can diagnose COVID-19. It turns out that 33 percent were not reproduced, 67 percent were reproduced. With such statistics it is impossible to trust the results. It’s total chaos, because I don’t know what they’re measuring there. This is the answer to the first part of your question.
The second part is more serious. They say there will be a next wave. Wave of what? You should only be interested in mortality from pneumonia, everything else is scientific nuances. Now we are just dealing with these waves. In the literature I was unable to find a clear definition of what a wave is, how many there should be, whether they are stable or not. It may turn out that in one year they were not there, but in another they were.
- Be that as it may, WHO proposes to reintroduce strict restrictions around the world, but people are emotionally, psychologically and physically tired of all this, the introduction of new quarantines is fraught with serious consequences not only for the economy, but also for politics and politicians. An example of this is Serbia, where people, enraged by the return of strict quarantine measures, began to storm the national parliament. Do you think that we might resort to isolation measures again (and fears were expressed that after the vote on amendments to the Constitution, the authorities would gradually return quarantine)?
-What idea are they trying to instill in us? If we behave carelessly, then a second wave will come that will engulf the whole world, but again they do not give a scientific formulation of what a second epidemic wave is. To answer, let’s first understand the essence of the epidemic itself. What is its source? There are two theories here.
The first is the patient zero theory. Where did it all start? It is believed that when a Chinese man in Wuhan went to the market, bought and ate something indecent, got sick, and the infection spread throughout the world. If he had not gone there, the pandemic would not have happened. That is, it arose by chance. At the same time, there are a lot of facts that are not explained by this hypothesis. For example, the situation with the incidence of COVID-19 on American and French aircraft carriers, whose crews were de facto isolated on ships in the open ocean. Where do they get these flashes from? They begin to say: they say, they probably entered the ports. We analyzed the information and it turned out that after entering the ports, two or three incubation periods passed, after which symptoms of the disease appeared. Then there was an outbreak at the Military Medical Academy, but there was strict quarantine there, there were no suspicious contacts. Tyumen Military School is the same story. The simultaneous outbreaks in remote mines, in gold mines where there was no external contact, are unclear. In Spain and Korea, people who have never traveled anywhere suddenly get sick.
All this is not explained by the patient zero theory.
Further, according to American data, the first cases of COVID-19 in the United States appeared in September-October 2020. They had an outbreak of pneumonia with the symptoms we are seeing now. It was explained by smoking electronic cigarettes - so-called vape pneumonia. French researchers say that their first Covid patient appeared around the same time. Recently, Wuhan analyzed products on the market at that time and found no traces of COVID-19. The paradoxical things listed above are not explained by the patient zero theory.
The second hypothesis is the following: viruses are not absolute enemies of humans, with whom we must wage an all-out and merciless fight. They perform many important and useful functions. Nature has made it so that each virus carries a piece of genetic information. If necessary, you can take them and integrate them into cells, rearranging them to suit the cyclical nature. Moreover, viruses live as if in tribes: influenza A and B viruses, coronaviruses, of which there are up to 200 variants, and so on. Influenza viruses and coronaviruses are at enmity with each other, and influenza is stronger in biological activity. Where people get the flu, they don't get COVID-19. Since the early 1990s, influenza vaccinations have been intensively carried out in Russia. If you look at the number of people who fell ill with the flu, then the annual figures used to be 5–8 million, but now, thanks to powerful vaccination, it has practically disappeared. There are 10–50 thousand requests about it per year. But then the incidence of acute respiratory infections and mortality from pneumonia should decrease. The incidence has not decreased, the mortality rate has increased 3 times! Then why are people dying since the flu has disappeared? In its place came COVID-19. And thank God it did, because its mortality rate is much lower than that of other viruses and coronaviruses.

- So what, you don’t have to fight him?
— If we invent a vaccine and destroy the coronavirus, won’t something worse come in its place? There is a biocenosis - a historically established collection of living organisms united by a common habitat. A person and microbes are an integral system; it functions with a certain cyclicity. I decided to see if there was a cyclical pattern of respiratory outbreaks. Clinicians have long known the concept of seasonal infections. They appear in autumn and winter. In the cold, people catch colds, cough, and sneeze, but science does not yet have a clear understanding of whether there is any regularity in such outbreaks. Monthly data on deaths from pneumonia have recently become available. We look at the graph of mortality throughout the year from January - no pattern, chaotic rises. January as the beginning was chosen subjectively, even by Julius Caesar - the Julian calendar. We decided to take an objective criterion - the summer solstice on June 21. Our distant ancestors used it to count the beginning of the year. Suddenly a remarkable pattern emerges: in summer mortality is minimal, and this continues until September; in October there is a slight rise. That is, the first wave occurs in October. When you talk to teachers, they say: “Yes, we know that.” October comes - and someone sneezed, someone had a fever, someone stayed at home and missed classes. Then in November everything decreases, and in December the mortality rate is low again. The second wave is January, the takeoff. In February there is a decrease. The third wave is March. And after that there is a decline until next October. The pattern of three waves was also found in other years.
- What are these waves?
— Waves of mortality from acute respiratory disease (ARI). Now they say “acute respiratory viral infection” (ARVI), but this is not entirely accurate. It’s better to talk about acute respiratory infections, because pneumonia can be not only viral. If we take all pneumonias, then viruses account for 15 percent, where coronavirus will account for 1.5–3 percent, no more. There is a basic level of constant mortality throughout the year, and against its background there are jumps: October, January, March.
— What is the duration of these waves?
— A month is a rise, a month is a decline, on average two months. Based on this, we see that the outbreak, now attributed to the Chinese, on whom all the dogs were unleashed, was back in September - October in the United States. Almost at the same time it appeared in France. They are now providing data about this. Then we look at us in Russia: severe pneumonia raged in December - January. And the clinic is the same: dry cough, strange spots on x-rays. The next wave happened in March, and it is now over. This is if we focus on mortality from pneumonia. And so it was 100 years ago, 1,000 years ago and will be in the future. In October - the first wave of the geological year.

“JANUARY IS PASSED, YOU WILL LIVE NORMALLY IN FEBRUARY, BUT THERE WILL BE MARCH, AND THERE WILL BE A JUMP”
— French virologist, Nobel laureate Luc Montagnier deciphered the genome of COVID-19 and assures that with a probability close to 100 percent, we are dealing with a hybrid virus, which, according to plan, was supposed to be the basis of a vaccine against HIV infection. In this scheme, the coronavirus would be a carrier of HIV antibodies, and the replication accelerator, when entering the human body at tremendous speed, would increase the number of HIV antibodies or the immune response to HIV. But this unfinished hybrid “escaped” from the laboratory and caused so much trouble. Do you agree with the Frenchman's conclusions?
— There are many such sensational information bombs. Everyone is attracted to something unexpected, something out of the ordinary. I do not believe in this. According to his version, something unusual and terrible has now appeared, humanity has never encountered this. Now let's look at the waves that we have been tracking since 2012. Let's pay attention to the amplitudes: this year they are the lowest! That is, now, compared to previous years, the pathogenicity of COVID-19 is the lowest. If you look at these graphs, you will instantly get your mind in order. In 2020, peaks are almost 40 percent lower than the average for the previous several years.
— When was the biggest peak?
- In 2020. And no one paid attention to him. Why? Because the share of coronavirus in the structure of common pneumonia, as I already said, is small. In a couple of months, everything will calm down - and then we’ll put our heads together and think about what we’ve done.
Analyzing these peaks and comparing them with overall mortality, we wonder what all the fuss is about now. If the death rate is low in September, let the children go to school as usual. Why deprive them of the joy of going there on September 1st? Mortality is low, morbidity is also low. Next comes October, and here we need to carefully monitor that there are no drafts, that children do not become hypothermic, and give them more vitamins and medications that activate the immune system. We survived October - everything, we live calmly and normally. Next is January. By this month, the Ministry of Health should prepare beds, make additional supplies of masks, medicines, and have additional medical personnel on hand. January has passed, live normally in February, but after that there will be March, and then there will be a jump. Anti-epidemic measures are also needed. We survived March, sighed - and now until next October.
“At the same time, almost 60 percent of Russian doctors surveyed by sociologists do not trust official statistics on coronavirus, and almost half consider the data on the number of infected and dead to be underestimated. This follows from a survey conducted by sociologists from FOM and Levada Center, which Vedomosti refers to. A total of 502 doctors were surveyed, 60 percent of whom have experience working with patients with symptoms of COVID-19, and 16 percent work in the so-called red zone. 23 percent and 21 percent of respondents, respectively, believe in the veracity of information about those infected and killed. Why? What's really going on?
— To understand this, you need to sit down and understand the statistics correctly. If you interview doctors who work in the “red zone”, they will tell you: “Horror, horror, horror.” If you ask questions to otolaryngologists, most of them will answer: “I’ve never seen anything like that.” If you ask your local doctor how often he encountered severe pneumonia, he will answer: “No more than 10–20 percent.” How did doctors perceive similar situations in the Soviet years? The doctor comes to the call, diagnoses pneumonia, prescribes treatment and leaves the patient at home. 80 percent of pneumonia patients are treated at home. And now local doctors will say that the situation is approximately the same as last year. Pathologists will provide the most accurate data, but doctors are not told how many people died from COVID-19 and how many died from pneumonia of other etiologies.
“For example, I feel uncomfortable where the beach is crowded with bodies or where the cost of accommodation and services is excessive” Photo: “BUSINESS Online”
“Here I am, an ordinary citizen, read a newspaper in which it is written that doctors do not trust official information. I turn on the TV, and there the government tells me the very official information that those on the “front line” of the fight against infection do not trust. And I have to choose who to believe - either doctors or official government information, since their opinions and assessments do not coincide. And who then spreads fake news?
“I shouted about this everywhere.” Who should you believe? It is necessary to create an independent scientific expert council. There must be objective, provable, scientifically verified information.
Now regarding the fakes. We have now compiled a list of crimes that the authorities committed in the state of political schizophrenia that swept the whole world. There are a dozen and a half criminal violations on this list. In the first lines - arbitrariness. Politicians, including Putin, Sobyanin and others, ignoring the opinions of scientists, believing that they understand everything, begin to destroy everything around them. Next comes the spread of fake information. Who to believe? Believe, no matter how strange it may seem, Rospotrebnadzor. True, he also began to have a split personality. Popova says: “The epidemic situation is normal. Epidemic thresholds have not been exceeded,” and immediately voices the terrible data on deaths. They even came up with an interesting expression: “Death associated with COVID-19.” As a doctor, I don’t understand what “associated with...” means? If we are examined for the herpes virus, it will be found in everyone. Then we can say about any deceased person that his death is associated with herpes.
— Now many Russians are looking forward to the resort and vacation period. Someone on social networks is already writing that they had a rest, arrived, and were picked up by an ambulance the next day. How dangerous are our resorts? Maybe it’s better to go to some sparsely populated places like Altai or Karelia, and not to the southern seas crowded with a wide variety of people?
— I think that here everyone should decide for themselves based on their ideas about a comfortable stay. For example, I feel uncomfortable where the beach is crowded with bodies or where the cost of accommodation and services is excessive. In terms of epidemics, until October the situation will be the same as last year and the year before, so you can go anywhere.
— That is, factors such as many or few people, overcrowding, and so on, will not affect the incidence?
“I go back to what I already said: there are many people or few, you are closing or not, there is a quarantine or not, with or without masks - three waves will inevitably happen. Come March, and all those aircraft carriers, remote areas, mines, and so on... the virus begins to come to life and rage. He has, as it were, an internal biological clock, which he obeys in his active life. Isolate or not, it will be the same thing - an outbreak that lasts two months.
- What is the safest way to travel from the point of view of the epidemic threat - by plane, train, ship or personal car?
“Just as you flew five and ten years ago, fly.” Were you worried about ventilation then? No. Now don't worry. If it were not for the media, which chase sensations and inflated ratings, people would not even know what coronavirus is.

“A MEDICAL INSTITUTION SHOULD GIVE THE VACCINED GUARANTEES AND, DEPENDING ON THE DEGREE OF HARM, PAY MONETARY COMPENSATION”
— Now about the vaccine. We have fragmentary and very sparse information about it: a bunch of different institutions of different subordination are working on it in Russia; some samples have almost begun to be sold abroad, but the tests are far from completed. How is the situation in reality, is something really already ready, tested and sold abroad?
“Nobody does this kind of thing centrally.” This is actually a crime, because in order to produce a vaccine, it is necessary to prove that it really helps and is safe, but this takes at least one and a half to two years. Anyone who promises you to make a vaccine in two or three months and launch it into mass production is a criminal. The driving force behind all this is profit, commerce. With 300 percent of the profit, there is no crime that capital will not commit, even under the threat of the gallows. What kind of allergic reactions will they talk about if billions of dollars are at stake?!
There should be a scientific center to compare different companies developing and producing different vaccines. Taking into account ethical standards. In this regard, I would like to return to the flu. In 15 years, we almost destroyed it; it was replaced by the coronavirus, which everyone has now rushed to actively fight. If we destroy it, then another virus with high lethality will take its place.
“But vaccines are being actively developed, almost every day on TV they tell us that just a little bit later, it will be possible to launch it among the people.” Who is planned to be vaccinated and how?
— We propose the following option: the clinic, the medical institution that conducts vaccination, in modern terminology, provides a service, which means it must give the person being vaccinated written guarantees that he will not have consequences harmful to his health. If any occur (an allergic reaction, malfunction of the body, etc.), then depending on the degree of harm, the medical institution must pay the patient monetary compensation. With this approach, many chief doctors will say: “I will not vaccinate.” It is imperative to achieve such guarantees, otherwise they will force you. For example, a child will not be allowed to go to school without vaccination. The letter of guarantee will prove to be a reliable economic protection against the lawlessness of forced vaccination.
— According to our official media, some samples of domestic vaccines are now being tested on absolutely healthy volunteers from 18 to 65 years old. The same media reports that mass production of the vaccine will be possible in the fall. But a question arises, because it has not been tested how the vaccine works on children, the elderly, those chronically ill with various diseases, or simply people in poor health, and we have practically no completely healthy citizens, even among children graduating from school. No one knows how their body will react to the vaccine or vaccines, but they want to launch it into mass production in the fall.
— Read the statements of Academician Alexander Grigorievich Chuchalin, chairman of the ethics committee at the Ministry of Health. He says it's a crime. They have no right to do what they do without the consent of the ethics committee. Moreover, as you say, in an expanded format for children and the elderly. I recently spoke on a TV channel, there was a human rights activist who offered a strong argument. The question came up about vaccinating children going to school. If they are not vaccinated, then they will not be allowed to study. He asked: “Are the other children vaccinated?” - "Yes". - “Are you sure that vaccines are safe?” - "Yes". - “Then why are you afraid of us, the unvaccinated?! Let some unvaccinated people infect other unvaccinated people. And you, vaccinated people, will not suffer. If you are sure that the vaccine will save you, then why are you twitching? And if you are afraid, it means you are not sure of its effectiveness. Then why are you going to vaccinate us with a vaccine that does not ensure safety? This means that it is not doctors who force us to vaccinate, but businessmen and merchants. They need money. They will tell you that these vaccines are certified. But certificates will be purchased, all these stickers will turn out to be unconfirmed by real scientific research. The end result is a crime."
“Vaccination of each individual person is, in fact, an experiment: it is unknown what will happen as a result” Photo: © Andrey Kataev, RIA Novosti
— Yes, and WHO writes that there is now a race in the world among the developers of this vaccine. We have our own internal race in Russia. Will this harm the quality of the future vaccine? Could a “crude”, low-quality drug go into production and be sold by the right people on a “mutually beneficial basis” or in some other way?
- Something like this will definitely happen. This drug will undoubtedly have a lot of side effects. I don't know how to protect myself from this. The only thing, as I have already said, is a written guarantee from the developer and the chief physician who performs the vaccination. They must give guarantees that if something happens, they will pay a large insurance amount. Then this whole race for money, and not for people’s health, will subside.
— Let’s imagine that the miracle drug finally saw the light of day. Who will be vaccinated and how? By enterprises, place of residence, health status, children in educational institutions (they were previously vaccinated against everything in the world)?
“We need to turn to the Constitution, which has now been spat upon and remade, but it contains a lot of important things, including the protection of human rights. Article 21 directly prohibits conducting experiments on people without their consent, because vaccinating each individual person is, in fact, an experiment: it is unknown what the result will be. Therefore, this is a gross violation of the foundations of the constitutional order. It is necessary to raise citizens through the media and appeal to the Constitutional Court.
— Well, the authorities can resort to voluntary-compulsory vaccination according to the principle “and for those who refuse, we will turn off the gas.”
- If we start making loud noise, then the obligation will be removed, but in all this sleep of reason, this is the important detail: the virus is mutating, and it is absolutely not a fact that in the outbreak that will begin in October, this particular formula of this virus will appear, and not seriously modified. It changes from year to year. And the vaccine that they are now trying to make against this strain will be completely useless against the strain that will appear in October. The new Minister of Health even had a curious phrase: he said that the vaccine is a weapon of a lost war. The war has already passed, the pandemic outbreak is over, and we have produced a vaccine. Next year there will be another war, with another enemy, against which this vaccine is no longer suitable.
— In conclusion, I would like to return to the beginning of our conversation, where you talked about the frequency of waves of morbidity. This applies not only to coronavirus, but also to peaks in the incidence of acute respiratory infections?
— Yes, and we are now preparing materials on how workers and businesses can prepare for the arrival of these waves with their peaks of incidence, how to minimize the impact of negative factors at enterprises, since with the increase in incidence everyone suffers: both employees and employers suffer losses.
On the other hand, during such periods it is necessary to influence the body’s reserves, the immune system. I will say more, and this could be the subject of a separate interview: we have learned to identify those who will get sick. Thanks to an individual approach, we can measure the health reserves of each person and make recommendations to businesses so that people clearly structure their behavior and their businesses based on these cycles. This will give you the opportunity to manage hazards at work and reduce labor losses from seasonal diseases.
— That is, you are able to assess the employees of enterprises - what is their “health reserve”, can they get sick, and so on?
— We at Sechenov University conducted a three-year study and fulfilled the task of the Ministry of Health to develop a system of individual prevention. We can train people at local health centers at enterprises, and they themselves will begin to identify high-risk individuals among employees. There are only 5 percent of them. And these 5 percent give rise to a wave of deaths.
— And from whom should the initiative come?
— You will have to contact the Academy of Labor and Social Relations. There we will teach how to identify high-risk individuals. No one is doing this now, modern medicine treats those who are already sick, but does not deal with individual prevention, because there are no such technologies in healthcare yet, but we are ready to provide them.
Water in a dream
Details about water that you can remember the next morning will help the dream book give an accurate interpretation.
- Crystal water - happy coincidences.
- Contaminated - small misunderstandings.
- Dirty - serious problems, dreams will not come true.
- Cool - you have to sweat to achieve results.
- Comfortable, warm - a good sign.
Preventive actions
After a person spends time in a room with a high noise level (for example, in a machine-tool factory), his head feels like it’s buzzing, dizziness and nausea may occur. To prevent the development of unpleasant sensations, high acoustic loads should be avoided: wear headphones and earplugs in noisy rooms; listen to music at a level not exceeding 40 dB.
Hypertensive patients and those suffering from atherosclerosis should not eat chocolate, drink less coffee, and stop smoking. It is advisable to eat a varied diet, be sure to eat fatty sea fish rich in Omega three acids, and natural dairy products.
To avoid noise in your head in the evenings, you need to avoid overwork, stressful situations, get a good night's sleep, and get enough rest. Walking in the fresh air and moderate physical activity help improve immunity and improve physical health.
Since noise in the head most often bothers people of pre-retirement age, after forty years it is necessary to undergo a medical examination at least once a year. This will help identify diseases at an early stage and quickly treat them.
Storm of feelings and emotions
Tons of water sweeping under you let you know that a breakthrough will happen in life. The dream book promises you to experience the whole range of sensations. If what happens in a dream does not frighten the dreamer at all, then in reality the feelings will bring him deep satisfaction.
Why do you dream about how a wave covers your head, but you still successfully emerge? This is an excellent sign and confirmation that your beauty is now in its prime, and those around you appreciate it. There are only pleasant surprises ahead from life.
Headache and dizziness: causes, diagnosis, prevention
At least once, everyone could experience periodic pain and dizziness.
This phenomenon is associated with a busy lifestyle, improper daily routine, or constant stressful situations.
However, in some cases the reasons are much more serious. In such a situation, in addition to dizziness and pain in the head, symptoms such as weakness, nausea, severe headache in the temporal part, etc. are added.
Therefore, in the process of identifying such a pathology, it is imperative to contact a specialist.
Main symptoms
Cephalgia can be primary or secondary:
- The primary form is not accompanied by another disease. It includes migraine, pain of a pulsating nature, one-sided (most often the forehead, eye area, and temple hurt). The attack is accompanied by visual disturbances, mild intolerance to light, noise, smells, and sometimes vomiting. Another type is tension cephalalgia, a pressing pain in the head accompanied by tension in the muscles of the head and neck. An attack can be caused by stress, long work on the computer, dehydration, weather, fatigue.
- The secondary form is a symptom of another disease. These pains can have different causes. They vary in location, intensity, frequency, and severity.
Which doctor should I contact?
Often, after physical exertion or mental stress, people feel worse. The nature of the pain can be varied. Compressive, pressing, throbbing pain in one side of the head is possible.
Pain during exercise is often functional in nature. They can occur for many reasons:
- Changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure;
- Stressful state during physical activity;
- Heat and stuffiness in the room;
- Dehydration is often the cause of headaches;
- Eat a large meal before training;
- Overweight people often suffer from hypoxia during exercise.
The likelihood of illness is higher in people with specialties: programmer, accountant, driver, who spend many hours at the computer or constantly strain the muscles of the eyes and neck.
Persistent cephalgia, which occurs regularly, requires mandatory consultation with a doctor in order to exclude serious pathology and prescribe the correct treatment in a timely manner.
The initial appointment should be made by a therapist. He will conduct a general examination, measure blood pressure, write out directions for tests and refer you to specialists.
If you have unpleasant sensations in the head and neck area, it is good to have a home blood pressure monitor, with which you can track pressure surges in different life situations. A rise in blood pressure after physical activity can often be the cause of pain.
The doctor gives a referral to an otolaryngologist to rule out chronic otitis media, sinusitis or inflammation of the maxillary sinuses (sinusitis).
The doctor can give a referral to an ophthalmologist to identify changes in the fundus and possible vision defects.
Most of the causes of discomfort in the head are associated with neurological symptoms, so diseases accompanied by head pain syndrome are treated by a neurologist.
Causes of illness
Causes of primary headaches:
- migraine;
- voltage;
- physical (including sexual) activity;
- trigeminal autonomic cephalgia.
Causes of secondary headaches:
- fatigue, insomnia, stress, menopause, premenstrual syndrome;
- neuralgia (impairment of the pain control system);
- disorders of the circulatory system, especially blood supply to the brain, hypertension;
- poor posture, difference in leg lengths, scoliosis, spinal overload, cervical spine disorders;
- food allergies, histamine intolerance;
- inflammation of the middle ear;
- cerebral hemorrhage, stroke, cerebral vein thrombosis;
- kidney diseases;
- inflammation of the jaw and teeth;
- eye diseases;
- sunstroke, sunburn;
- infectious diseases;
- diseases, inflammation of the upper respiratory tract;
- head injuries;
- cerebral edema;
- meningitis, meningoencephalitis;
- glaucoma;
- sleep apnea syndrome;
- cancer;
- excessive use of analgesics;
- undesirable effect from drugs and vaccines.
Diagnostics
Vestibular migraine is accompanied by the development of vestibular symptoms or dizziness in combination with migraine. To determine the cause of the disorders and assess the state of the nervous system, it is necessary to undergo a series of diagnostic studies.
Diagnosis of such disorders is carried out by a neurologist, ophthalmologist, otolaryngologist and other highly specialized specialists. To identify pathological conditions the following is prescribed:
- Doppler ultrasound. During this procedure, the main arteries of the head are examined.
- graphic studies.
- Ophthalmological examination.
- Computer and magnetic resonance imaging.
- X-ray.
- Electrocardiography.
If such symptoms occur, the skull and cervical spine must be examined. Laboratory tests may also be needed, including a complete blood count and determination of blood glucose levels.
Stress
This condition concerns every modern person. Stress is caused by hard work, constant noise... Stress cannot be avoided, but it can be mitigated. It is important to learn to relax, find out which situation is the most stressful, try to minimize its impact, or at least change your attitude towards the problem.
What could it be?
There are many reasons why a person has pain and dizziness. The most common of them:
- severe eye fatigue;
- atherosclerosis;
- migraine;
- stressful situations;
- sudden rises from bed; tumors;
- hypertension;
- traumatic brain injuries;
- cervical osteochondrosis;
- consequences of bad habits;
- hypotension;
- infections;
- vegetative-vascular dystonia;
- stroke.
Excessive eye fatigue
This cause of mild dizziness and pain in the head is not dangerous, as it is easily eliminated. Modern people spend a lot of time on the Internet and constantly use gadgets.
TV, computer, smartphone - all this puts serious strain on the eyes. Painful sensations occur both in the evening after work and during the day.
Office workers spend a lot of time at the computer in an unnatural position, which causes chronic strain on the muscles of the neck and back, and the whole body seems to be pulled. To avoid such consequences, give your eyes a rest and control the number of hours spent with gadgets.
Atherosclerosis
A chronic disease as a result of which cholesterol plaques are deposited on the walls of blood vessels in the brain. There is a disruption in the blood supply to certain parts of the brain, which receive less nutrients.
Characterized by dizziness and headache, absent-mindedness, memory loss, weakness, fatigue, and you may want to sleep.
Migraine
A neuralgic disease that is concentrated in one part (in the temporal region on the left or right, the forehead often hurts) and manifests itself in attacks. The disease is characterized by nausea, intolerance to bright light, loud sounds, and pressing pain.
The eyes often hurt, and less often they even water. The pain can last all day and is worsened by any activity. Drinking a painkiller is not a way out of this situation.
The disease is temporarily suppressed by tranquilizers and antipsychotics, without eliminating the causes of the disease.
Stressful situations
A sudden release of large amounts of adrenaline into the blood during excitement and stressful situations is a normal reaction of the body. After a short period of time, the adrenaline level returns to normal.
The release of the hormone leads to vasoconstriction, as a result of which the brain receives less oxygen and nutrients, which causes dizziness and pain. It also happens that the pain is constantly present for a week or more.
A high level of the hormone in the blood is signaled by:
- dizziness;
- insomnia;
- weight loss;

Be reasonable
A strong, high sea wave is a metaphorical image of new chances and future changes in your destiny.
The insidious waves in the dream, which tried to cover you and drag you into the depths of the sea, will bring disruptions into your life in the business and romantic spheres. When the dreamer managed to swim to the surface from under the water, then pleasant events are coming. You will be one step closer to your dreams.
When a wave hits a stranger in a dream, someone will make you feel anxious in reality. Carefully analyze what is happening and do not give in to the whispers of ill-wishers.
Possible diseases
It is generally believed that most cases of tinnitus arise from otologic causes. Often the problem is accompanied by hearing impairment, visual impairment caused by a disorder of sensory cells and/or the auditory nerve that conducts auditory impulses. In these cases, sensorineural deafness is referred to.
The second most common cause of dizziness and tinnitus is diseases associated with the cardiac and vascular system, usually characterized by the occurrence of atherosclerosis. About 25% of hypertensive patients have noise in the ear and feel dizzy.
ENT diseases
The main causes (and treatment) of tinnitus and dizziness are associated with ENT diseases:
- cerumen blockage, foreign body in the external ear canal;
- bone growth in the canal – exostosis;
- violation of the eardrum;
- medial inflammation of the ear (mesotitis) - especially chronic inflammation with cholesteatoma (non-inflammatory tumor);
- labyrinthitis;
- obstruction of the auditory tube, which runs from the middle ear to the nasopharynx, balancing the pressure in the middle ear necessary for the normal movement of the eardrum and auditory ossicles;
- senile deafness or presbycusis - in the process of aging, hearing gradually decreases, especially at high frequencies;
- occupational hearing loss – hearing damage due to excessive noise and vibration in hazardous workplaces;
- Meniere's disease is a disease caused by fluid imbalance, usually excessive blood pressure; symptoms include dizziness, tinnitus, nausea, weakness, subsequent hearing disorders (if such symptoms are caused by another disease, for example, spinal pathology, endocrine disorders, we are talking about Meniere's syndrome);
- otosclerosis is a disease characterized by changes in the bone parts of the middle ear (fixation and immobility), sometimes - the inner ear, and their damage.
High ICP
Increased ICP is characterized by intense headache, extending from the back of the head to the crown or forehead, and blurred vision. Dizziness, nausea, tinnitus, and sweating also appear.
Migraine
Sometimes the symptoms of migraine (a disease that occurs more often in women) are dizziness and tinnitus. In addition to the intense headache typical of an attack, weakness, nausea, and loss of appetite occur.
With this disorder, dizziness, ear pain, and tinnitus are accompanied by headache, tachycardia, and nausea.
Sometimes unpleasant manifestations cause problems with the spine, or more precisely, damage to the arteries, affecting, among other things, the inner ear.
Therapeutic approaches for dizziness and tinnitus
It is advisable to avoid loud sounds, caffeine, nicotine, and limit salt intake. If severe discomfort causes significant psychological problems, it is sometimes necessary to treat the disease with a psychologist; less often, psychiatric help is required.
Drugs
Medicines for dizziness and tinnitus:
- A group of drugs is used that cause vasodilation, therefore improving cerebral and ear blood supply (for example, gingo Biloba extracts). Drugs for dizziness and tinnitus of other origins (local anesthetics, contrast agents) are also effective. They are used either as injections or locally in the middle ear.
- Other groups of drugs are B-complex vitamins, nootropics - substances that improve the function of brain cells (Piracetam), drugs that affect muscle tension (Mydocalm), antiepileptic drugs.
- Betahistine is a drug whose main function is to stabilize balance. These are tablets for dizziness, acting by dilating blood vessels in the area of the inner ear and auditory-equilibrium centers.
- The following pills for headaches and vertigo are psychopharmaceuticals (Diazepam, Xanax) prescribed by a psychiatrist.
- Autogenic training and biofeedback (under the guidance of an experienced psychologist) are recommended.

For pathology of the cervical spine or injury that causes unpleasant hearing sensations and tinnitus, physical therapy can be effective.
Diagnostic methods, criteria for determining diagnosis
Patients with tinnitus and dizziness should undergo several tests:
- detailed audiological examination (recording of the hearing curve);
- objective hearing test (BERA);
- testing the balance system (even if there is no dizziness);
- imaging studies (CT, MRI).
Further, according to specific needs, the following examinations are carried out:
- neurological;
- ocular;
- psychiatric.
After determining the cause, excluding a disorder in the auditory organ that requires surgery or other intervention (irradiation of a nerve tumor with a gamma knife), a decision is made to prescribe medications for vertigo and tinnitus.
