Emergency Warning Signs
Seek urgent care for sudden dizziness with facial droop, one-sided weakness, speech difficulty, severe new headache, chest pain, fainting, severe shortness of breath or new inability to walk normally.
New Hearing or Neurologic Symptoms
Sudden hearing loss, double vision, severe imbalance or new numbness can require prompt assessment.
Why Supplements Should Wait
Using a supplement first can delay diagnosis of treatable causes. Stabilize the medical question before experimenting with wellness products.
Falls Matter
Repeated falls or near-falls can cause serious injury and should trigger a broader review of medications, vision, blood pressure, strength and vestibular function.
