A member asked:

A few months ago i had a bout with bppv for a few days. for a while now if i move my head in any sudden quick movements i feel like my equilibrium off?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Recurrence: Unfortunately, BPPV is one of those things that can come back at any time. Practice vestibular maneuvers, research the half-somersault maneuver. Also, if symptoms continue, see care with a specialist such as a neuro-otologist.
