What causes tingling sensation around the calf area after experiencing vertigo?
Patient: I had severe vertigo and had to be helped to walk, I vomited once later in the evening. I felt discombobulated the next day and the next morning I had dry heaves and felt an intense tingling sensation starting from mid-calf moving slowly up my body, it felt hot/cold and then once it hit my midsection, my entire body was clammy. Doctor: Hello!Welcome on Healthcaremagic!Your symptoms could be related to an inner ear disorder or a viral infection (considering the tingling in your body). For this reason, I would recommend consulting with your GP for a careful physical check up and some tests: - complete blood count- blood electrolytes- thyroid hormone levels- PCR, sedimentation rate. Consulting with an ENT specialist and performing labyrinthine test would help exclude an inner ear disorder. Hope you will find this answer helpful!Best wishes, Dr. Aida
