Bppv: You may have change in blood pressure from sitting to standing position or positional vertigo (bppv) due to inner ear infection. Please consult your doctor for evaluation.

Normal: There is a temporary change in blood delivery to your brain as your cardiovascular system adjusts it pressure to the change in position. This is called positional hypotension and is normal if it is not associated with prolonged symptoms or other conditions such as heart disease, anemia or iron deficiency.

Good Afternoon, I have been sick since Saturday evening, no COVID, but upon blowing my nose my ear popped loudly. Since I was 9, tubes were put in my ears 3 x's ending at the age 14, both eardrums are cracked. Nausea, dizziness, headaches turn into migraines and unbalance Question is, usually my ear pops back after a day or so, but it's been 4 days and still feels like it's clogged. Should I use Debrox to unclog or get checked for possible Vertigo? Possibly both? Cracked/popped ear drum?
