Moving your head can make you feel dizzy and nauseous if you have BPPV because it affects your inner ear, which helps you balance.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a condition where small crystals in your inner ear get out of place. When you move your head, these crystals move too, which can confuse your brain about your body's position. This confusion can make you feel dizzy and sometimes nauseous.
Understanding how BPPV affects your balance can help you manage the symptoms better and know when to seek help.
