[Helpful Tips, Treatment Review] Went to the hospital due to severe dizziness - BPPV helpful tips

Are you feeling tired because of dizziness? I was thinking about it.

It got so severe that I finally went to the hospital. The diagnosis is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.

Until then, I had never heard of this disease before, so I was very surprised.

Currently, I am receiving otolith correction surgery and medication treatment.

It has become so much better.

However, since benign paroxysmal positional vertigo has a high recurrence rate, regular management is essential.

I have to do it.

1. Not getting stressed: While it's impossible to avoid stress altogether

Take it as comfortably as possible and meditation can also be helpful.

I think so.

2. Sleep duration of 7-8 hours: Lack of sleep due to excessive use of smartphones

But I think just sleeping enough makes you healthier.

3. This week, quitting alcohol: I don't quit smoking, but I will abstain from alcohol this time.

I missed the opportunity completely.

4. Vitamin D and Ca intake: There are papers on benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.

The recurrence rate of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is 27% when taking vitamin D and calcium.

They say it decreases, so I make sure to eat it.

5. Head trauma management: management related to head injury.

It is best to avoid exercises or activities that involve impact to the head.

I am sorry.

In addition, habits such as sleeping on one side or excessive daily activities

It is recommended to avoid lying down or engaging in vigorous, dynamic exercise, so developing proper daily habits can help prevent BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo).

I think it's better to prevent it.
