Madalas po sumasakit ang batok ko at nasusuka po ako at nahihilo. Nanghihina po yung katawan ko. Masakit din po ung tuhod ko. Madalas po hirap ako humakbang. Ano po kaya ito?


Translation: My nape often hurts and I feel nauseous often and dizzy. My body also feels weak and there is pain in my knees, as I have difficulty walking. What could this be?

Thanks for your question.

The cause of the neck pain is most likely also causing the dizziness. This condition is called cervicogenic vertigo. The possible causes of the neck pain include arthritis or inflammation of the bones of the spine at the neck region.

The knee pain may result from a lot of conditions involving the knee joints, kneecap, or the muscles and ligaments of the knee.

Please visit your doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

Thank you.
