"Can COVID-19 Cause Vertigo?" (BPPV)

Lately, I've been getting a lot of questions from people about whether or not COVID-19 can cause vertigo, so I thought I'd answer these questions in a video!

The first point I make is that people need to differentiate between "vertigo" and "dizziness" or "lightheadedness". Once you do that, you can try to figure out which specific system is involved in causing your symptoms.

Other causes to consider include things like: vestibular neuritis, blood pressure issues, and inflammation of your heart and/or blood vessels.

I'll explain more in this video!

Please feel free to leave a comment below, especially if you've had success treating your post-COVID vertigo/dizziness!
