Positional Vertigo is one of the most common causes of balance issues and disequilibrium in adults.
Yet it’s often labeled “benign.”
When people hear “benign,” it sounds harmless — but the spinning, nausea, instability, and fear of falling are anything but. It can disrupt work, driving, sleep, and daily life.
Because of that label, many patients feel dismissed or are struggling to find real relief.
Here, Dr. Pensavalle at Long Island BALANCE RECOVERY explains why positional vertigo requires proper diagnosis and targeted treatment.
