Labrynthitis returning?

Posted , 2 users are following.

around 3 months ago, i spent a few weeks with what appears to be labrynthitis, and after days of it being severe, it eased off.

For just over a week i have been having spells of giddiness and head/neck tension like before, sometimes but not always caused by movement.

i have read (on here) that you can get flare ups of symptoms months after it has passed, but i wondered if anyone else has experience with it?

    Were you diagnosed with Labyrinthitis or just assuming thats what it was?You may have a problem with your neck rather than your ears. Its all to do with your cervical spine in your neck and the nerves around it. Is your posture good? Try to sit straight and not slouch. Are you involved in any activity where you move your head a lot? Sometimes happens when you are looking down at a book maybe, then up at a computer screen constantly during the day.

    You could also try taking an anti inflammatory like Ibuprofen.
