What to do if having lightheadedness, occassional dizziness, imbalance, pain in the left arm?
Patient: hello i seem to be rather light headed at the minute with occasional dizzyness which can also affect my balance at time but it takes a short while sometimes to focus on some things. at the same time i have been feeling an aching down my left arm which can be quite painful Doctor: Hello!Welcome on Healthcaremagic!The dizziness could be related to different possible causes: an inner ear disorder, cervical spondylarthrosis, orthostatic hypotension, etc.. It is not related to the pain in your left arm. The pain in the arm could be related to a pinched nerve. If the problem persists, a nerve conduction study may be necessary. I would also  recommend consulting with an ENT specialist to exclude an inner ear disorder. Hope you will find this answer helpful!Kind regards, Dr. Aida
