What you have to do if you get a vertigo attack?
- Sit or lie down during an episode of vertigo. You might lose your balance.
- Avoid sudden movement, watching television, or reading.
- Use good lighting at night.
- Use a cane for more stability.
- Do not drive.
- Avoid working on high areas or operating machines.
- Return to normal activities gradually.
- Avoid consuming foods and beverages high in salt. This will increase fluid retention and provoke vertigo.
- Manage the stress. Psychotherapy can help you for coping with your condition.
- Ask help from a friend or family member during travel or doing any activities.
