Any tips for recovering from vertigo imbalance? I've been suffering some inner ear thing for the last three days. Any head movement faster than a snail's pace results in a trippy experience, and I'm walking a bit like I'm drunk without the fun aspect of the alcohol.
@davidchow very many different causes for vertigo, but there is one that I have much experience with. You have my compassion! Nasal spray to clear the tubes is a simple first try. But Always good to speak to doctors first ofcourse.
The one that causes my vertigo is BPPV. The funny thing is; the instant solution (even if temporary) is also diagnostic for this vertigo. It’s a series of movements, that bring me instant relief, and that way I know it’s that definitely. You need a second person to help though. Look up “the epley manouvre” Many YouTube tutorials. It’s got something to do with the crystals floating in the gel in your inner ear. Takes 5 minutes and honestly gives me instant relief. It’s worth a try and you can’t do damage with it.
@ErikaDesign it's taken five or six days but I'm feeling much better thank you. I did do the Epley manoeuvre at the height of my vertigo and it did help a little bit on Saturday. I've been doing small variations of the manoeuvre, such as occasionally holding my head to my shoulder at a 45-degree angle. I'm still wobbly on my feet a bit but thankfully no longer look like I'm acting on the bridge of the starship Enterprise when there's an attack!
@davidchow oh that’s good to hear👍🏼 hope you’re able to get to the bottom of the cause 😊
