Feeling off-balance in BPPV means experiencing dizziness or a spinning sensation when you move your head in certain ways. This happens because tiny crystals in your inner ear are out of place, affecting your balance.
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) is a condition that affects balance and causes dizziness. When people with BPPV feel off-balance, it often means they experience a spinning sensation, especially when they move their head in specific directions. This sensation is due to tiny crystals in the inner ear that have moved out of their normal position.
Understanding these symptoms can help in recognizing BPPV and seeking appropriate care.
