How can I keep my vertigo from flaring up?

Question

dizziness, nausea, etc

Answer 1

The only thing that prevents my vertigo is to eliminate caffeine from my diet. Caffeine causes inflammation in the inner ear (which controls balance and may be damaged by a virus). Caffeine is more powerful than most people would assume, even if you have built up a tolerance.

Answer 2

Mandi and Anna P took my answers! But, I can add acupuncture. My chiropractor does it after my adjustments. I take Dramamine 24 hour less drowsy formula. Two for the first dose and one a day after that.

Answer 3

try dramamine, works like a charm

Answer 4

The only thing that works for me is going to a chiropractor.  I've had vertigo most of my life, and when my muscles are tight and my neck of out of alignment, it gets much worse.  Occasional neck and shoulder massages also help.  How you hold your head really can affect your vertigo.
