Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a common cause of vertigo, which is the sudden sensation that you or your surroundings are spinning. BPPV is caused by a problem in the inner ear. It occurs when tiny calcium particles called canaliths dislodge from their usual position and collect in the inner ear canals.### Symptoms:- Dizziness- A sense that you or your surroundings are spinning or moving (vertigo)- Lightheadedness- Loss of balance or unsteadiness- Nausea### Causes:- Head injury-

The treatment for room-spinning vertigo (BPPV) depends on which semicircular canal the misplaced ear crystals (otoconia) are in. An ENT doctor or vestibular physical therapist can diagnose which one. For otoconia in the posterior canal, the treatment is the Epley Maneuver (the video before this one). For the lateral canal, the treatment is the Lempert BBQ Roll (the video after this one). The superior SCC is almost never affected. If u want a video for this let me know tho. #bppvawareness #offbal
