Hello
Thanks for writing to H.C.M. for your query.
I read your clinical history of illness regarding dizziness for about two weeks, though acute phase had been passed and still you are not comfortable. Considering all aspects of your symptoms I am suspecting that you are suffering from BPPV. This is a self limiting disease of vestibule of our internal ear, and spontaneous recovery occurs. This recovery usually takes 4 to 6 weeks if no complications intervenes.
As far as treatment is concern some labyrinthine sedatives like - cinnerazine, Betahistine, Promethazine are of useful in acute stage. after passage of acute stage some vesibular rehabilitation exercises are helpful in shortening the recovery period.
With Regards.
