The Dizzy Child.

Department of Audiology, Boys Town National Research Hospital, 555 N 30th St., Omaha, NE 68131, USA.

Published: October 2021

Dizziness occurs in children with an estimated prevalence of 0.45% to 15.0%. Vestibular disorders in the pediatric population can impact gross motor function development, visual acuity, and contribute to psychological distress. Appropriate case history and focused direct examination can be helpful when determining the etiology of dizziness. Vestibular testing can be completed in children and guide management of suspected vestibular dysfunction. Vestibular dysfunction is commonly seen in patients with sensorineural hearing loss. Migraine disorders are the most common cause of dizziness in childhood. Etiologies of dizziness in children differ from those commonly seen in adults.

Objective: Geniculate neuralgia (GN) is a rare facial pain syndrome characterized by severe stabbing pain in the ear canal. The exact cause of GN remains unclear; however, it is thought that the nervus intermedius (NI) is the primary implicated structure. When medical management fails, surgical interventions are offered to treat the pain.

Vestibular Physical Therapy (VPT) plays a crucial role in the rehabilitation of patients with vestibular disorders by promoting vestibular compensation through adaptation, habituation, and substitution mechanisms. While traditional VPT approaches have demonstrated effectiveness in restoring balance and gaze stability, some patients with chronic vestibular dysfunction continue to experience persistent deficits. review of recent advancements in neuroplasticity research suggest the need for updated rehabilitation strategies that integrate sensorimotor substitution, saccadic training, optokinetic stimulation, and cognitive-motor dual-task training to optimize vestibular compensation.

In developing nations like India, chronic otitis media (COM) is a common middle ear ailment that has serious ramifications for both hearing and quality of life. Long-term inflammation of middle ear cavity and tympanic membrane are the hallmarks of COM, which can result in consequences like facial paralysis, labyrinthitis, hearing loss, and potentially fatal cerebral abscesses. The effect of COM on vestibular function is still unknown.
