Tiredness, Fatigue & ENT-Related Exhaustion

When constant fatigue is more than just lack of sleep — and could start in the ears, sinuses, or nervous system

Always Tired? The Root Cause Might Not Be What You Think.

Fatigue, brain fog, and dizziness can sometimes stem from inner ear imbalanceschronic ENT infections, or vestibular dysfunction.

Dr. Peerbaccus explores these overlooked causes.

ENT & Neurological Causes of Fatigue

Tiredness is not always about rest — it can be due to your body constantly compensating for imbalance, low oxygen, or sensory overload.

Common ENT contributors include:

🎧 Chronic tinnitus or uncorrected hearing loss
🧭 Balance issues that tire the brain
🧠 Vestibular migraine or neuro-vertigo
🌬 Sleep apnea or snoring reducing oxygen at night
🤧 Allergies or sinus congestion causing low-grade inflammation
🔄 Constant need to “recalibrate” movement and vision

Symptoms to Watch For

😴 Unrefreshing sleep despite full nights
😵 Brain fog or concentration issues
💤 Daytime sleepiness, even while active
💢 Low mood or irritability
🚫 Light sensitivity or motion sensitivity
🌀 Fatigue after dizziness or inner ear symptoms

Dr. Peerbaccus’s Evaluation Includes:

ENT exam and hearing test
