My vertigo issue hasn't gotten any better, and I'm not seeing any improvement. You mentioned I should avoid exercises, so I've been steering clear of them. What could be causing this, and is there anything else I should be doing to help with it? I'm feeling a bit stuck and would love some guidance on next steps.

Vertigo can be a challenging condition to manage. Since you are not seeing any improvement and avoiding exercises as advised, I recommend trying medication to help alleviate your symptoms. You can try taking Betahistine (brand name Serc) at a dosage of 16 mg three times a day. This medication can help reduce the frequency and severity of vertigo episodes. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I feel like there's this big lump of mucus that's stuck between my nose and throat, and it's really annoying and making me feel short of breath. I've tried swallowing a bunch of times, but it just won't budge. With everything going on with COVID, I can't really see a doctor in person. Is there anything I can do to make this go away? It's been like this for three days, and I don't have any other symptoms. I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas?
