Dizziness, which includes lightheadedness, motion sickness, vertigo and more, has many causes and symptoms, ranging from mild to the very disruptive and serious. Inner ear conditions most often cause dizziness, but reduced blood low to the brain, concussions and other injuries, and certain medications can all cause someone to be dizzy. If the condition interrupts daily life, medical attention is needed.
