Vertigo Treatment in Miyapur
Sudden dizziness. Spinning sensations. Difficulty walking. Expert vertigo diagnosis and same-day treatment is now available at Pulse Heart Hospital, Miyapur.
Vertigo and dizziness are among the most common neurological symptoms — yet most patients are given the wrong diagnosis and treatment for years. Dr. Anand Karnam, DrNB Neurologist, accurately differentiates the cause of your dizziness — whether it is BPPV, vestibular neuritis, Meniere's disease, or central vertigo — and initiates targeted treatment. He holds visiting consultations at Pulse Heart Super Speciality Hospital, Mathrusree Nagar, Hafeezpet, Miyapur from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Key Points
- Sudden spinning sensation is rarely a sign of stroke — BPPV (inner ear crystals) is far more common.
- BPPV is cured in 1-3 sessions with the Epley repositioning manoeuvre — cure rate above 90%.
- Specialist vertigo care is available in Chanda Nagar — serving Miyapur, Bachupally, and Patancheru.
- Red flags: vertigo + sudden severe headache, facial droop, or limb weakness → go to ER immediately.
- Vertigo from anxiety is treated differently from labyrinthine or central vertigo — correct diagnosis matters.

Recognising Vertigo — Causes and Symptoms
BPPV — The Most Common Cause
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) causes brief intense spinning episodes triggered by head movements — lying down, rolling over, or looking up. Usually treatable in a single clinic visit with the Epley manoeuvre.
Vestibular Neuritis
A sudden, severe episode of continuous vertigo lasting hours to days, caused by viral inflammation of the vestibular nerve. Often follows a cold or flu.
Meniere's Disease
Recurrent episodes of vertigo lasting 20 minutes to several hours, combined with fluctuating hearing loss, tinnitus and ear fullness. Requires long-term specialist management.
Central Vertigo (Brain Causes)
Vertigo from stroke, brain tumour or multiple sclerosis is central vertigo — typically accompanied by other neurological symptoms. Must be distinguished from inner ear causes.
Cervical Vertigo
Dizziness and unsteadiness related to cervical spondylosis, poor posture or neck muscle tension. Very common in desk workers and mobile phone users.
Vertigo Treatment at Pulse Heart Hospital, Miyapur
Accurate Diagnosis — Central vs Peripheral
A structured neurological examination to correctly identify whether your dizziness is from the inner ear (peripheral) or the brain (central) — the most important first step in treatment.
Epley Manoeuvre for BPPV
The Epley repositioning manoeuvre is performed in the clinic for BPPV — relieving the spinning sensation immediately in most patients. No medication required.
Vestibular Suppressant Therapy
Short courses of vestibular suppressants (betahistine, cinnarizine) and anti-nausea medications for acute vestibular episodes.
Vestibular Rehabilitation Exercises
Customised home-based vestibular rehabilitation exercises to retrain the brain and inner ear — essential for long-term recovery from vestibular neuritis and Meniere's disease.
MRI Review for Central Causes
Brain MRI interpretation and clinical correlation to rule out stroke, demyelination or posterior fossa tumour as a cause of vertigo.
Why Choose Sri Anand Hospital?
Treated by: Dr. Anand Karnam · DrNB (Neurology) · Vertigo & Balance Specialist · Visiting Neurologist, Pulse Heart Hospital, Miyapur
"Most of my Miyapur patients with vertigo have been living on stemetil for months without anyone asking why they have it. Stemetil suppresses symptoms — it does not cure BPPV. One session with the Epley manoeuvre, and many of these patients never have vertigo again."
