OPVertigo? Feeling like you are a boat rocking back and forth? Start by doing rhomberg’s test where you stand with your feet together and close your eyes. Make sure someone is there to catch you! If you fall over, that’s called a positive rhomberg’s test. Some people will feel like they are going in circles but not everyone feels this- even though they actually are going in tiny circles! True vertigo makes you go in circles but it’s easy to miss in milder cases of vertigo. I had to put this patient in high heels to see her going in circles but she herself couldn’t feel it. Once you’ve seen an ENT to rule out ear wax, ear infections,destruction of the tympanic membrane, and injury to the actual bony canals of the ears, you may want to try the Eppley maneuver. and then retest yourself with rhomberg’s test. Watch one of the trickiest versions of vertigo I have seen and what it looked like before and after treatment. #balance #vertigo #healing #wellness
