ABOut Labyrinthitis, bbpv and mav
Labyrinthitis- is most commonly caused by a viral infection that affects the inner ear. This condition typically causes vertigo (intense dizziness, often with vomiting).There are short term medications that can ease the sickness however these in our opinion should only be used for acute symptoms and not long term as this can slow down compensation. Normally the virus clears within 12 weeks however if this persists you should contact your doctor and discuss about seeing an ENT specialist. In the first stages of this virus you may want to rest however if this lingers on the best option is to try and carry out some daily activity or gentle exercise for the brain to be able to compensate for loss of balance. If this causes off balance or dizziness it is best advised not to operate any heavy machinery or drive a car until symptoms diminish.

Migraine Associated Vertigo (Vestibular Migraine) - Migraine is a complex condition involving the blood supply to parts of the brain and inner ear. Most people think of a migraine as a severe headache with feeling sick (nausea) and some visual disturbance. There are many different types of migraine. Often the balance system is affected resulting in a feeling of dizziness, spinning and imbalance. sometimes such symptoms occur before the headache and occasionally they occur without a headache. There is a genetic link to migraines so other members of the family may have a type of migraine as well.
