This was such a great video. It makes so much sense and my physical therapist today referred me to a spine doctor for the cervicogenic dizziness. The headaches, nausea, sinus and eye pain. The being spatially off. I cried because I thought I would never have a name for this or a path forward. Again, great video. Thank you
This is so helpful. Dizziness started a few weeks ago, and has rarely gone away. First episode scared me. I went to emerg and doctor there dismissed it as BPPV, saying it was the result of "too many birthdays". Advised me to do certain manoevers to correct it. They did not help at all. When I was at physio for an unrelated matter, she suggested it might be this. She did some initial testing and could not find anything that suggested BPPV. Your compare and contrast was spot on! There is no way I have BPPV. Physios rock! They know this stuff better than anyone!
Hullo Marrow This is very interesting! I was knocked down by a car and had a hairline fracture of the odontoid process... unfortunately the x-rays were lost ... but this weekend I shall do as you suggest. I have to admit I was a physio before the RTA and working with children with cerebral palsy so very fit. I feel sure that with your speciality I will find if I do or dont have cervicogrnic dizziness... and if i dont - you will have something else in your experience that I do have. many many thanks Trish
It seems like I'm at the cervicogenic dizziness category. I have been suffering recently with N/V, dizziness that last for an hour or so. I was diagnosed with Menieres disease last year, and my vertigo only kicks in often this month. And it really affects my daily lives. I'm about to see a different chiropractor soon to get second opinion. I have a neck problem too. Hope he can help me feel better.
Usually not. If you are having frequent dizziness and have signs of upper neck pain, I always start out treating the neck. If the dizziness goes away, we are in business. Hope that helps!
Dear Doctor, thank you for your reply. I have this dizziness start 1 month ago. When it comes, I can not stand normally and must lay down in 1 position and I feel very sleep and sweat and have tinnitus at the same time. Then I go to sleep like this for couple of hours and it goes away. I don't have nay neck pain. And when I went to doctor, they said it is likely BBPV, but I doubt that because it almost comes everyday. Please help Doctor, what kind of dizzinezz is this? thank you so much!@@physiotipswithmarrow5836
Hey doc i had an accident 6yrs ago and my head is bump on solid post after that i suffering bppv neck pain and cervicoginical vertigo .. i had a ct scan but the doctor said theres nothing wrong in my head .. suffering for almost 7 yrs. 😢
Well, my symptoms feel like I have both. I justhad a strong vertigo episode, with a lot of pressure above eyes, and a lot of sweating after it. After episode I became really motion sensitive, but the thing is I feel dizzy for 3 or 4 years and had episodes, but the todays episode was the strongest. I was in ER and MRI and they didnt fi d anything, on mri there is only slight misaligment with C1 and C2 ligaments, but nothing else. Can you please reccomend what should I do, I live in Croatia and all doctors try to get rid of you asap you cone to them. Thanks!
Interesting stuff. I too deal with neck pain and balance issues. I also have problems with my vision, where a GoPro video can send me into an awful headache. Like my eyes can't track the motion. Never spinning, but can't keep up. Is this a sympton of cervical dizziness?
This could be a symptom of cervicogenic dizziness. I would recommend finding a good physio in your town that specializes in orthopedic manual therapy. Best wishes.
Hey Doc ....I had sudden cervical headaches back 3yrs ago and for some reason I have struggled with this issue still to this day I had ct scans and been ti the ENT and nothing I have been to many chiropractors as well and I've noticed that when they align my neck I feel more dizzy and kind fades away within days but yes im dizzy non spinning of and on thru out the day ....I think a have PPPD starting from a cervical dizziness that came on extremely strong .......mybe?
Thanks for your question. The research is strong for specific cervical spine stabilization exercises for reducing HA frequency and dizziness. Chiropractic care has only short term efficacy. Moreover, spinal manipulation to the upper neck can frequently bring on dizziness/nausea/lightheadedness, etc. I would try to find a physical therapist/physiotherapy in your town that specializes in Gwen Jull style exercises. Make sure to ask your new therapist if they are familiar with these exercises. The video below talks about the research. Hope this helps. th-cam.com/video/OEvOz4yhsU8/w-d-xo.html
I've been experiencing this ever since i was a kid. They did all sorts of tests and scans on me.. and they couldn't figure out what's wrong. The only thing they said is "stress". Years later i experienced the same thing and went for scans. It turns out that due to bad posture there's a misplaced disc that is pressing a nerve in my neck. I still don't know whether i have bppv or cervical vertigo. The worst thing is that since I'm 17 i can't drink most pills that can help me since they're made for older people. At this point I'm really lost and i don't know what to do.
Yes. Unfortunately, it can last for years. Usually off an on but each presentation is unique. Tonight at 6 pm we are putting a new video out on the best tests for cervicogenic dizziness. Thanks for watching!
Dear Doc.I had ACDF surgery last year at C2/C3 and C3/C4. My numbness gone but dizziness and imbalance still persisted till today.ENT specialist diagnosed me having central vertigo.May I know any good medicine and treatement can cure it?Many thanks.
Sounds like good cervical stabilization training good help your condition. Dr. Gwen Jull from Australia is an expert in this field. Maybe there is a physiotherapist in your town that knows her research? That could be very helpful. Thanks for commenting.

Dear Doctor, thank you for your video. Can anyone have BBPV and neck dizziness at the same time?
Usually not. If you are having frequent dizziness and have signs of upper neck pain, I always start out treating the neck. If the dizziness goes away, we are in business. Hope that helps!

Can constant cervicogenic dizziness last for months if left untreated?
Yes. Unfortunately, it can last for years. Usually off an on but each presentation is unique. Tonight at 6 pm we are putting a new video out on the best tests for cervicogenic dizziness. Thanks for watching!
@@physiotipswithmarrow5836 Thanks!
Is it possible to have both? I was diagnosed with BPPV5 years ago but still suffer from dizziness and balance issues.
Cervicogenic dizziness is frequently mistaken for BPPV. It would need a proper exam to be for sure.
