I'm feelin dizzy, my head spins what causes it and what to do?

I feel so funny right now. I was watching a video and when it stopped I moved my head away but I ... lost my balance and almost fell off the chair. lol Then this happenned again and again. I'm starting to get worried. I googled it and I found out this could be from an ear infection. Is it possible that cleaning my ears every single day (which is bad cause it causes more secretion) somehow conduced to an infection? Thanks.
