이석증과 이석증치료에 대한 글 잘 봤습니다. 이석치환술이라는게 신기하네요 반고리관에 들어간 이석을 고개를 돌려가면서 제자리로 옮겨준다니.. 그런게 가능한가봐요 ^^
Sharing a story of treating benign paroxysmal positional vertigo with canalith repositioning procedure
One day, I was diagnosed with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo due to dizziness.
I will share the treatment process from diagnosis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) to full recovery.
Sharing the causes and symptoms of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) as well.
Suddenly one day, dizziness came over me.
The world really started spinning around, and I was going crazy.
I went straight to the ENT clinic because dizziness is often caused by ear problems rather than brain disorders.
Wow! The diagnosis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo... a condition where dizziness occurs without ear or brain disease!
Usually, there are many cases where it gets better on its own without special treatment.
However, the problem is that it repeats like a chronic illness.
The cause of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is said to be the movement of a substance called otoliths within the inner ear's semicircular canals.
It helps the semicircular canals maintain balance, but when there's a problem here, you feel dizzy.
The exact reason why this otolith detaches from its original position is not clearly known, so preventive measures are also not clearly established.
The symptoms of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) include sudden dizziness that occurs as previously mentioned and disappears within a minute.
In most cases, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) improves naturally over time without any treatment.
But I was diagnosed with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo at the hospital, and I couldn't just wait without treatment. I never know when dizziness might suddenly occur somewhere.
So I decided to undergo treatment for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and received canalith repositioning therapy.
It's called canalith repositioning, and it's not a surgical procedure. The doctor gently turns the patient's head in different directions to move the displaced otoliths in the semicircular canal back to their original position.
I heard that repositioning surgery for ear stones is not something just anyone can do, so finding a good hospital is very important.
And I had received a prescription for medication in case of sudden symptoms.
I plan to use it as an adjunct therapy.
