What are the tests performed to diagnose vertigo?

Vertigo can be diagnosed with the tests performed by your doctor. These may include:

1. Fukuda-Unterberger's test: You will be asked to walk in place for 30 seconds with your eyes closed. If you rotate or lean to one side, it could mean that you have a problem with your inner ear labyrinth. This could result in vertigo.
2. Romberg's test: For this evaluation, you will be asked to close your eyes while standing with your feet together and your arms to your side. If you feel unbalanced or unsteady, it means that you have an issue with your central nervous system.
3. Head impulse test: For this test, your doctor will tenderly move your head to each side while you focus on a stationery target. The clinician will verify how the inner ear balance system is working to help with controlling your eye movements while your head is in motion.
4. Vestibular test battery: This incorporates a few different tests to assist with identifying an inner ear issue. Goggles are placed over the eyes to monitor eye movement responses while moving your eyes to follow a target, moving your head and body, and, even, after warm and cool water are placed into the ear canal.

Also to the tests mentioned above, your doctor might request radiographs. These may include:

1. CT (computed tomography) scans.
2. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

What are common vertigo treatment?

The vertigo treatment that is ideal for you relies upon several factors, including the root cause. Some of the treatments for vertigo include:

1. Meds: Treating the underlying reason for your vertigo can assist with facilitating symptoms. For instance, If vertigo is a result of an infection, your doctor can recommend antibiotics. Steroids can assist with reducing inflammation. There are also drugs to ease other vertigo symptoms, like nausea or motion sickness.
2. Vestibular rehabilitation: If vertigo is the result of an inner ear issue, this kind of physical treatment might assist in reducing the symptoms. Vestibular rehab reinforces your other senses so they can compensate for episodes of vertigo.
3. Canalith repositioning procedure (CRP): If you have BPPV, canalith repositioning maneuvers assist with moving calcium deposits into an inner ear chamber where they will be absorbed by your body.
4. Surgery: When vertigo is because of a severe underlying issue, like a brain tumor or neck injury, surgery might be important.
