Ear stone disease is a relatively common otolaryngological condition, with dizziness being the most common clinical symptom, and some patients may experience vomiting. This is mainly due to severe dizziness symptoms leading to nausea and vomiting. Generally, symptoms will gradually improve after the acute onset, but symptoms can be triggered again when the body or head position is changed to a certain posture. After the onset of the disease, it is necessary to visit the otolaryngology department as soon as possible. Manual repositioning treatment can be considered, and regular follow-up is required during the treatment process, as some patients may experience a recurrence of the condition.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a condition related to dizziness.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a relatively common otolaryngological condition, clinically referred to as benign, paroxysmal, positional vertigo. It primarily occurs when tiny particles enter the semicircular canals, and with changes in body position, it can easily trigger episodes of vertigo. Generally, the duration of vertigo is quite brief, lasting about several seconds, and the symptoms of vertigo quickly disappear after the body or head is stabilized. However, it tends to be recurrent and generally does not accompany symptoms like tinnitus, headache, or hearing loss. Currently, a common treatment is manual repositioning, which helps most patients recover and alleviate their condition after being performed.

What should be paid attention to in daily life with otolithiasis?

Patients with ear stone disease should pay attention to the following aspects in daily life: The first is to avoid staying up late and excessive fatigue; The second is not to look down at the phone or computer for long periods to avoid cervical spine disease; The third is to avoid external impacts to the head or substantial external pressure, as these could potentially cause a recurrence of ear stone disease; The fourth, even after treatment has ended, regular follow-ups are essential to monitor any changes in the condition; The fifth suggestion is to undergo an MRI of the head to check for any intracranial abnormalities. Overall, most patients with ear stone disease respond well to timely treatment.

What should I do if otolithiasis frequently recurs?

Ear stone disease, also known as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, primarily manifests as brief episodes of dizziness that can occur with changes in body position. The dizzy spells usually last about ten seconds and tend to quickly subside once the head or body position is stabilized, although recurring episodes are possible. In cases of recurrent attacks, timely treatment is necessary. Currently, the more common treatment method is manual repositioning. Most patients gradually recover after undergoing manual repositioning treatment. If the results of manual repositioning are unsatisfactory, treatment may also include medication and rotary chair repositioning devices. However, a very small portion of patients, who do not respond to standardized conservative treatments, may need to consider surgical options. (The use of medication should be under the guidance of a professional doctor.)

Does otolithiasis cause tinnitus?

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is a relatively common otolaryngological condition characterized by vertigo that does not involve tinnitus and is associated with changes in body position. The duration of the vertigo is typically very short, usually around 10 seconds, and the symptoms disappear once the head or body position is stabilized. There are no accompanying symptoms such as tinnitus or hearing loss. In terms of treatment, the first choice is usually manual repositioning, which is effective for most patients. If manual repositioning does not yield satisfactory results, treatment may involve using a rotary chair in conjunction with medication. If these methods are ineffective, surgical treatment might be considered.
