Treating vertigo and tinnitus based on the most modern therapeutic considerations.
DIET - MEDICATION
With an appropriate diet, some patients - but not all - may experience an improvement in their symptoms.
The rationale is that the concentration of electrolytes in the body in general, and more specifically in the inner ear, namely the cochlea and the labyrinth, is stabilized.
For example, when we consume large amounts of salt, its concentration in the blood increases, resulting in an increase in our blood pressure.
Also, when we consume large amounts of sugar, the concentration of glucose in the blood increases, potentially leading to the development of diabetes mellitus. However, the concentration of these substances also increases in the inner ear, resulting in the onset of the symptoms described above.
During the acute phase of a vertigo attack, it makes sense to administer anti-vertigo medication, Vertigo - Vomex p.o. or Supp Vertirosan 1x2 for 4 days.
In addition, in cases of vomiting, antiemetic treatment with Primperan is required.
The basic treatment for labyrinthine hypofunction consists of taking betahistine (Antivom x3, Betavert x2), which aims to enhance labyrinthine function.
Dietary supplements, vitamins, antioxidants:
Among dietary supplements, ginkgo biloba leaf extract holds a prominent position in many countries. It contains flavonoids that have antioxidant properties, as well as ginkgolides A and B, of which A promotes neurogenesis, while B has an anticoagulant effect. - Vitamins C, D, E - Other antioxidants, such as zinc and resveratrol found in red wine.
Vestibular compensation therapy for vertigo is an exercise program used for various ear conditions. It is designed to promote compensation through the central nervous system.
These exercises are classified as follows:

Vestibular compensation therapy for vertigo is an exercise program used for various ear conditions. It is designed to promote compensation through the central nervous system.
These exercises are classified as follows:
- Eye exercises. Move your eyes upward, then downward, and then from one side to the other, following your finger.
- Head exercises. Bend your head forward and then extend it backward. Next, turn it from one side to the other.
- Standing trunk exercises. Stand upright, bend down to pick up an object from the floor, and then stand upright again. Next, stand upright and perform rotational movements of the trunk to the left and right.
- Exercises lying in bed. Turn your whole body to one side, sit up in bed, lie down toward the opposite side, and then turn onto your back.
The exercises should be performed four times a day, with 3 sets of 5 repetitions each time.
The exercises should be continued for a period of at least 3 months.
In conclusion, vestibular exercises help compensate for vertigo of labyrinthine origin. However, they should be performed only after certain, fortunately rare, conditions have been ruled out through appropriate examinations.
