Overview
There are no established measures for the primary prevention of vertigo, as it occurs as a symptom of underlying pathology.
Primary Prevention
- In some diseases controlling risk factors or triggering factors can prevent the disease hence preventing the symptoms:[1][2][3]
- Immunosuppression can provoke Herpes zoster oticus.
- Upper respiratory viral illness can lead to acute vestibular neuritis.
- Drug-induced vertigo: Dose reduction or discontinuation of the medication in patients presenting with vertigo may decrease the future incidence.
- Recognized triggers including altered sleep patterns, chocolate, red wine, ripened/aged cheese, can provoke vestibular migraine.
- Head injury can trigger epileptic vertigo.
- Increased stress can cause psychological vertigo.
- Changes in head position can provoke vertigo in acute labyrinthitis, benign positional paroxysmal vertigo, cerebellopontine angle tumor, multiple sclerosis, perilymphatic fistula.
- Perilymphatic fistula can be triggered by loud noises, changes in ear pressure, excessive straining, head trauma.
