What Can Happen If Dizziness or Vertigo Is Untreated?

Living with dizziness or vertigo can have a tremendous impact on your life, from your emotional state to your ability to perform mundane tasks. Episodes are often triggered by simple movements such as rolling over in bed, sitting up quickly, looking upward, or bending forward, and they tend to keep returning without proper care.

So, what exactly can happen if dizziness or vertigo goes untreated?

• Recurring Spinning Episodes
• Constant Unsteadiness
• Increased Fall Risk
• Fear of Sudden Movement
• Lightheadedness and Brain Fog
• Disrupted Sleep
• Avoidance of Daily Activities
• Loss of Confidence and Independence

It's vital to get a clear diagnosis, because vertigo and dizziness are not the same condition and require different treatment approaches. Dr. Caruso evaluates whether your symptoms come from the inner ear, like BPPV, or a cervical cause, then treats it directly. Most BPPV cases resolve within one to three visits.
