Have you had cold??? Probably your suffering from common cold with?? Viral labyrythitis. Or bppv Labyrinthitis is an inner ear infection that causes a structure deep inside your ear (the labyrinth) to become inflamed. The labyrinth is a maze of fluid-filled channels that control hearing and balance. When the labyrinth becomes inflamed, the information it sends to your brain is different from the information sent from your unaffected ear and your eyes. These conflicting signals cause vertigo and dizziness. Labyrinthitis is usually caused by a viral infection, such as the common cold or flu, which spreads to the labyrinth. Less commonly, it s caused by a bacterial infection. Vertigo caused by labyrinthitis may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, hearing loss, tinnitus and sometimes a high temperature and ear pain. Treatment A combination of medication and self-help or self-care steps are usually recommended to treat labyrinthitis. If labyrinthitis is caused by a virus, like a cold, antibiotics would not be effective. If a bacterial infection is suspected, antibiotics may be prescribed. For severe symptoms, a doctor may prescribe a short course of a benzodiazepine medication that reduces activity in the central nervous system. This should protect the brain from the misleading or abnormal signals it is getting from the vestibular system. These drugs are not suitable for long-term use. Antiemetic drugs may be prescribed for nausea, vomiting and vertigo symptoms. To avoid injury from falls with balance problems, lie down during an attack and keep hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Bed rest may help. The dizziness and vertigo symptoms may be made worse by chocolate, coffee, alcohol, smoking, bright lights and noise. It may help to avoid or reduce these triggers.
