Maybe but unusual: Positional dizziness / vertigo could be caused by dehydration, middle ear infection, problems in the inner ear,nervous system, some viral infection, side effects of medications or unknown cause. In some cases it may not signal anything dangerous but if your symptoms persist please consult with a physician for clarification on associated symptoms and a more concrete diagnosis. Take care
