View allI'm really struggling with my vertigo, specifically BPPV. I had an episode in the past and was on Vertin 16mg and Stugen for about 20 days, and it seemed like it went away completely. But then, after stopping the medication, it came back a week later. I've done all the tests, like CT scans and X-rays, and they're all normal. I'm worried because the vertigo just won't go away permanently. Could you suggest any way to get rid of this for good?
To achieve permanent relief from benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), consider the following steps: 1) consult an ENT specialist or a vestibular rehabilitation therapist; 2) undergo the Epley maneuver or other canalith repositioning procedures (CRPs) to help relocate the otoliths in your inner ear; 3) perform vestibular rehabilitation exercises (e.g., Brandt-Daroff exercises) to improve balance and reduce vertigo symptoms; 4) consider lifestyle modifications, such as avoiding triggers (e.g., sleeping on your side), reducing salt intake, and increasing water consumption; and 5) if symptoms persist, discuss with your doctor the possibility of a vestibular suppressant medication, such as betahistine, to help manage symptoms.

I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed this tiny round lump on the bottom right side of my neck. It's not painful at all, which seems odd to me, but I'm just worried since it showed up suddenly and only on one side. Should I be worried about this? What might it be?
no need to worry follow your doctors advice
