[|Human|] I have five herniated disks in my neck from on the job injury and have developed vertigo when performing job functions that require frequent up and down movement of the neck. I work for TSA and am under workers comp treatment but not for the vertigo as it has not been determined by a professional that it is related to the herniated disks in my neck but i as the injured person know it is. I need to find a Doctor that can help me as I am out on disability leave without pay and need to know if it is permanent or temporary condition so I may return to work or not
[|AI|]  Hi, It is a common misconception that herniated discs cause vertigo and reality, herniated discs in neck cause neck and arm pain. So, we still need to find the cause of vertigo. With proper evaluation by a vertigo specialist, the underlying cause of vertigo can be found. After that, correct treatment can make you symptom-free. You may not need a disability certificate after that. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
