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.
