Why the cause matters
[Vertigo](/symptoms/vertigo/) is a sensation that you or the surroundings are moving, often spinning. It can arise from the inner ear, migraine, medicines, or a neurological problem. Brief episodes triggered by turning in bed can fit [Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo](/conditions/benign-paroxysmal-positional-vertigo/), while hearing changes or ear pressure may point to another inner-ear condition. A product that settles nausea may not correct the underlying cause.
Safer self-care
Sit or lie still until the movement settles, rise slowly, keep pathways clear, and drink fluids if you can. Avoid alcohol and do not drive, climb, or operate machinery during an episode. Some antihistamine-type medicines can cause drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, or interactions; check with a pharmacist before use, especially with glaucoma, prostate symptoms, pregnancy, or other medicines. For positional vertigo, a clinician may recommend an [Epley Manoeuvre](/treatments/minor-procedures/epley-manoeuvre/).
Get urgent help when
Call emergency services for vertigo with facial drooping, arm or leg weakness, speech trouble, fainting, severe headache, chest pain, or new inability to walk. Seek prompt assessment for persistent vomiting, new hearing loss, severe ear pain, fever, or a first intense episode. Recurrent symptoms also deserve a clinical review.
Questions for your doctor
Ask whether your triggers suggest an inner-ear problem, whether a medicine is safe with your conditions, and which balance exercises or tests may help.
