A-Dizziness in children can have a number of different causes, ranging from a psychological disorder to a brain tumor. Don`t ever ignore dizziness in a child; it may indicate a serious underlying problem that needs treatment. You also should be aware of dizziness in a child who`s too young to have the vocabulary to describe the sensation he`s experiencing. A child may describe dizziness as a spinning feeling, or indicate that he`s feeling unsteady or light-headed. Watch, too, for other symptoms that may accompany dizziness.
Although a common pediatric complaint in ambulatory settings, dizziness is a vague term that can describe many conditions, including lightheadedness (presyncope), anxiety, intoxication, ataxia, visual disturbance, hyperventilation, weakness, depression, and true vertigo.
