Got vertigo about 2 weeks ago from inner ear inflammation. how long can it take for vertigo to go away? i'm better than 1 week ago & balance is better
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Two weeks: Irritation of the balance system will result in vertigo, nausea, even vomiting with balance problems. The system needs time to recover and re-regulate. This usually takes about 10 days to two weeks. Medications may make recovery faster, but some make it slower and cause persistent symptoms. Rest and good health habits improve rate of recovery.
