Hello, i had bppv..i sometimes feel dizzy when i smoke ..i wanna ask that will affect me if i consume alcohol...does alcohol worsen bppv?

Yes: Alcohol suppresses the balancing function of inner ear. If a police officer suspect a driver is intoxicated, he/she will ask the driver to try to walk heel to toe in a straight line in the old day!
