🚩 Other red flags during an attack of vertigo
🔴 A sudden, severe or unusual headache
🔴 New severe neck pain with sudden dizziness/vertigo
🔴 Sudden hearing loss, especially with acute vertigo
🔴 Loss of consciousness, confusion or marked drowsiness
🔴 Persistent severe vertigo with new neurological symptoms
⚠️ Remember: The severity of the spinning does NOT tell you how serious the cause is.
If you suddenly develop vertigo with BE-FAST symptoms or severe difficulty walking, do not wait for it to settle and do not drive yourself. Seek urgent medical evaluation.
