If you experience dizziness associated with BPPV, consider these tips:
Be aware of the possibility of losing your balance, which can lead to falling and serious injury.
Sit or lie down immediately when you feel dizzy.
Avoid sleeping on the side of your affected ear.
When getting out of bed, do so slowly. Sit on the edge of the bed for a minute.
Avoid bending down to pick something up. Don't extend your head back, such as when getting something from an upper cabinet.
Be careful when getting up from lying back at the dentist's office, beauty parlor or barbershop, or during activities, such as yoga or massage.
Use two or more pillows at night to avoid lying completely flat.
Use good lighting if you get up in the night.
Walk with a cane for stability.
Work closely with your doctor to manage your symptoms effectively.
