Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a common inner ear disorder. With BPPV, changes in your head position — such as tipping your head backward or sitting up in bed — lead to sudden vertigo (a feeling that the room is spinning). BPPV isn’t a sign of a serious problem, and it usually disappears on its own within a few days of the first episode. However, the symptoms of BPPV can be very frightening and may be dangerous, especially in adults over the age of 65. The unsteadiness of BPPV can lead to falls, which are a leading cause of fractures. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (or BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo, which is a false sensation of motion, often reported as a spinning sensation.
Conium is best suited for BPPV when vertigo appears upon turning the head sideways. A whirling sensation in the head is felt, and the patient wishes to keep the head entirely still. This remedy can be indicated when the patient has vertigo from shaking the head. Vertigo that worsens from turning over in the bed or from stooping is another key indicating feature. The patient may feel as if the bed is floating.
Aconite is prepared from a plant named Aconitum Napellus or Monkshood from the family Ranunculaceae. Patients have complained of vertigo spells that appear upon rising from bed or rising from a seat. A tendency to fall (mainly to the right side) may also be noted. This remedy can also be indicated when vertigo on moving or shaking the head.
Gelsemium works well in cases of BPPV when dizziness arises from sudden head movement with loss of balance. The patient staggers while walking as if intoxicated, head feels light, sometimes attended with dimness of vision and a sensation of a band drawn tightly around the head above the ears.
Bryonia is very useful in BPPV when dizziness arises from least motion. It is also indicated when vertigo is on stooping. There appears a sensation of looseness of the brain in the skull. A sensation as if the head is turning in a circle is also present. Along with vertigo, there is pain in the back of the head (occipital region).
Belladonna is beneficial for cases of BPPV with vertigo spells appearing on turning in bed. There is a sensation as if everything is turning around in a circle. There appears a rush of blood to the head, and it may be attended with noises in the ear. Vertigo may be followed by a headache of throbbing nature. This remedy is also useful for vertigo when getting up in the morning.
This natural homeopathic remedy is useful in cases of BPPV when nausea and vomiting are present along with episodes of vertigo. Patients have vertigo attacks appear mostly when rising from a lying position, things appear to be whirling, and there is marked nausea and vomiting. A headache and ringing in the ears may also be present. A tendency to fall due to vertigo may also be present in some cases.
Phosphorus works in cases of BPPV when vertigo appears from moving the head up or down. Other symptoms that indicate the need for this remedy include vertigo that arises upon rising from a seat. A sensation of floating and emptiness may be felt in the head with vertigo. Fainting and exhaustion may also appear.
