Vertigo
Vertigo is the sensation that you or the room is spinning. BPPV is a common inner-ear cause. It often triggers brief, intense symptoms when looking up, lying down or rolling over in bed.
A detailed evaluation helps determine whether symptoms are positional, vestibular or may require further medical assessment. When appropriate, specific repositioning maneuvers can provide fast relief.
