There is no medical diagnosis of a disease called Vertigo Flu. However, many types of the flu have the symptom of vertigo. Vertigo is the medical term for a type of dizziness that makes it seem to you like the room is spinning or moving when you are holding still. Vertigo can be caused by many different diseases and disorders, often it is a symptom of a problem with the inner ear as well.
Diagnosis of multifocal motor neuropathy usually requires both a careful physical examination, as well as electromyographic (EMG) testing.
Accurate diagnosis of congenital myasthenia requires specialized testing. These include testing specific nerves to determine if the nerves fatigue more quickly than is normal
Yes, children can experience vertigo. Vertigo in children can be caused by various factors including inner ear infections, head injuries, migraines, or certain medical conditions. It's important for children experiencing vertigo to see a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Treatment options for vertigo may include vestibular rehabilitation therapy, medications to control symptoms such as nausea and dizziness, Epley maneuver for certain types of vertigo like benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), and lifestyle changes such as avoiding triggers or maintaining good hydration. It is important to consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment plan.
electromyographic examination and nerve conduction studies are often the most accurate means to localize and determine the exact nature and site of the plexopathy.
Meclizine is used to treat a very specific form of vertigo, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Meclizine may make you drowsy, which may make you lightheaded and more likely to become vertiginous if you do not have BPPV, or it may not work for you at all, and taking it may delay diagnosis of your actual condition. If you are continuing to have vertigo symptoms, despite meclizine, or you are getting worse, I would recommend you call or see your physician. You may need additional studies.
Myotonic dystrophy is diagnosed clinically in individuals that have a specific type of muscle weakness. This is confirmed with molecular genetics testing, where the DMPK is analyzed

Yes, most treatments for Vertigo involve some form of physical therapy. The most used treatment is called VRT, where a platform is used to help fix balance and nausea issues. Treatment depends on the diagnosis. A complete medical evaluation is recommended for anyone with vertigo. This can reveal the true cause and suggest one or more solutions based upon treating the underlying disorder.
Blood tests, neuroimaging studies, genetic tests, electroencephalography (EEG) and other types of studies may be performed in order to determine the underlying disorder.
