Explanation

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a condition that can cause dizziness and spinning sensations, especially when you move your head in certain ways. Some people with BPPV may experience vertigo episodes multiple times a day. According to the research, BPPV can be persistent, meaning it can last for a long time and happen often during the day.

What Happens in BPPV?

  • Vertigo Episodes: These are short bursts of dizziness that happen when you change the position of your head.
  • Frequency: It is possible for these episodes to occur several times a day.

Managing BPPV

  • Exercises: There are special exercises that can help manage BPPV. These exercises help move the small particles in your ear to a place where they won't cause dizziness.
  • Epley Maneuver: This is a special movement that can help treat BPPV. It might need to be done several times to be effective.

If you or someone you know is experiencing frequent vertigo, it might be helpful to talk to a healthcare provider for advice and possible treatments.
