What causes dizziness and loss of balance after having humerus and left arm fracture?
Patient: I was in a A A 8-2-2016 and suffered a bad neck whiplash? and then I fell out of my s.u.v. 10-3-2016 and broke my humerous, left arm, but I had this enormous bump on the back of my head the size of a goose egg., the hospital ignored this, I have horrible dizzy spells, my head feels like i am swimming and when I get up I almost lose my balance, and am very careful with this NEW thing.,Do I have vestibular? Doctor: Hello, I am Dr. Selmani and read carefully your question.I think that when you felt the second time and had the bump on the back of your had , you had a head trauma that should had been investigated more with imaging , such as Xray, CT scans or MRI of the Head and neck.You may have an hematoma inside your skull  that compresses your brain and causes you lost of balance , dizziness in spelling etc. The part of the brain responsible for these functions is exactly in the back part of the head where you had the bump.This signs that you have are not related with the humerus fracture but only with head trauma.I suggest you to see a neurosurgeon or emergency medicine doctor for work up.Hope this information will help.
