### input:
My husband has been feeling dizzy for 4 weeks. No other symptoms as far as I knew. I sent him to the doctor who after a bit of investigation decided it was probably a viral infection. BP 120/70, a febrile. Bloods not yet done. Tonight my husband showed me a non healing woun on his forearm. Smells very much like psuedomonus. Wound has that bright red meaty look. Small amount of slough. I suspect this is the cause of his dizziness. Could this be correct and if so what are the complications of having pseudomonas in his body for such a long time? (I am a nurse by the way). Will get swab done and antibiotics tomorrow. Of course this costs!! Stupid me.

Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor! I read carefully your question and would explain that the infection in his forearm and his dizziness do not seem to be related. It is really less probable that dizziness may come so long before the local infection being visible. But, as it is an infection, I would recommend consulting with his doctor for a physical exam, a bacterial culture of the wound material and a complete blood count. It is important to determine the infectious agent, in order to choose the best treatment options. Regarding the dizziness, I would recommend performing some tests: - a cervical spine X-ray study for spondylarthrosis- labyrinthine tests for an inner ear disorder- a brain MRI- a Doppler ultrasound of the vertebral arteries to exclude possible vertebral artery insufficiency.
