The value of the damping ratio Î¶ determines the behavior of the system such that Î¶ = 1 corresponds to being critically damped with larger values being overdamped and smaller values being underdamped. If Î¶ = 0, the system is undamped.
A Dr. Darshan N. Shah, MD , Neurology, answered on behalf of NorthShore University HealthSystem. Internists, neurologists, and ENTs (ear nose and throat doctors) all treat vertigo and dizziness. The specific specialist you may see is determined by the cause of your symptoms.
Vertigo can feel similar to motion sickness. Patients generally refer to vertigo as âfeeling dizzy.â Vertigo is not the same as lightheadedness. The most common causes of vertigo are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Meniereâs disease, and acute onset vertigo. Treatment depends on the cause. Popular treatments include special medications called vestibular blocking agents. The outlook for vertigo-associated disease (VAD) depends on the cause.
