Hi,
Commonest cause of your symptoms is wrong posture followed with cervical spondylosis changes, resulting in vertigo dizziness pain etc.
Second commonest cause may be minnerre disease. Maintain correct posture while sitting or doing work. Learn cervical spondylosis excercises from nearby physiotherapist , which will help you in longer run. For further queries and treatment connect directly through paid Practo consultation.
Regards Dr Suman Mohan
