types of dizziness and vertigo
Vertigo is the most common type of dizziness. The most common diseases that result in vertigo are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), MÃ©niÃ¨re's disease, and labyrinthitis. Less common causes include stroke, brain tumors, brain injury, multiple sclerosis, and migraines.
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common type of vertigo and is a disorder of the inner ear, which is a key part of maintaining balance. It is a type of vertigo that occurs suddenly with the change of head movement and is characterized by a sense of spinning, dizziness, loss of balance, and nausea. The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between vitamin D, bone mineral density, and BPPV. Researchers enrolled 80 patients with BPPV for the study group.
