Inner ear vertigo test review & diagnostic results before detailed examination

Recently, I kept feeling dizzy for no reason, so I went to the hospital.

The doctor suspected benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, so I underwent vestibular function testing.

I thought I was just usually tired, but as the dizziness worsened, I became anxious.

Vestibular function tests are examinations that assess the balance sense of the ear, so they are essential when checking for the presence of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).

 

 

When performing the test, wear equipment such as goggles.

Testing balance by measuring eye movements,

I felt a little dizzy and uncomfortable, but I endured and waited.

Watching how the eyes respond when turning the head or changing posture

They said they would identify the problem with the ear, and the examination was more precise than I expected.

 

 

The diagnosis results confirmed that it is indeed benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, as expected.

Fortunately, it's not a major problem, so I'm relieved.

He advised to be careful because there might be times when dizziness occurs again.

They also taught me how to reposition the otoliths through stretching or specific exercises.

 

At first, the tests were unfamiliar and I was concerned about the costs, but

I felt a bit relieved after receiving an accurate diagnosis.

If dizziness persists, do not ignore it and strongly recommend visiting a hospital for a diagnosis!
