Subject: recumbent vertigo.
Dear Friends,
Many times we come across conditions where we have
to keep our patients
on bed for long time e.g # cases on traction ,trauma and
other surgery .Prolonged recumbent position
physical weakness ,and mostly old age group cases land up
vertigo when ever they are up and about.
Mostly this condition is self limiting ,but DO WE HAVE ANY
METHOD OR MODALITY to resolve
this crisis,because one of my case ,an old lady who has
undergone hip replacement continues to complain of vertigo
,which is unnecessarily delaying her weight bearing and movement
.
Thanking you all.
