VERTIGO

It often feels like the world is spinning around you or that you're spinning yourself, even when you're perfectly still. Vertigo can be caused by various factors, including inner ear problems such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), vestibular neuritis, or Meniere's disease. Other potential causes may include head injuries, migraines, or certain medications. The symptoms of vertigo can be triggered or worsened by sudden head movements, changes in position, or even just getting out of bed. Alongside the sensation of spinning, individuals may experience nausea, vomiting, sweating, and difficulty focusing or walking.

• Alleviating dizziness and spinning sensations
