Feeling off-balance with BPPV is common because it affects the inner ear, which helps with balance.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a condition that affects the inner ear, which plays a key role in maintaining balance. When you have BPPV, you might feel dizzy or off-balance, especially when you move your head in certain ways. This happens because tiny crystals in your ear move to places where they shouldn't be, confusing your brain about your body's position.
Feeling off-balance is a common symptom of BPPV, but with the right care, it can often be managed effectively.
