Brief Answer: Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. Epley's XXXXXXX Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for your reply. You are suffering from Benign Paroxysmal Positional vertigo. It is not a serious condition to concerned about. It will go off on its own in few weeks to months. This is due to problem in your inner ear. In our inner ear, there are fragments of calcium carbonate crystals lining in a part of inner ear called vestibule of labyrinth. Some times these these crystals may broken down and move into the another part of inner ear called semicircular canal. We all know that inner ear is important in maintaining the equilibrium of our body position. In this condition, the fragments that lie in semicircular canal sends additional signals to brain and cause this vertigo and dizziness. But as the days and weeks goes on, these fragments dissolves and the symptoms disappears. If the symptoms are worse, ENT specialist will perform a procedure called Epley's manoeuvre to replace the fragments from semicircular canal to vestibule of labyrinth. This is done by a series of four movements of the head. After each movement, the head is held in the same place for 30 seconds or so. Thus you need the ENT specialist to perform the procedure. We usually advice the following after this procedure. 1. Do not lie flat for 48 hours. During this time sleep sitting in a chair. 2. Do not lie on the affected side for one week. 3. Ideally, try to avoid bending over (such as to tie shoelaces) for a week. If the first try did not work, you may need to repeat the same treatment. Thus this is nothing to be concerned about. The eye movements you feel during these episodes are to maintain the balance to dizziness. Hope this helps. Please write back for further queries. Wishing you good health.
