Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) occurs when tiny particles called otoconia become dislodged from the balance organ of the inner ear (the vestibular system) and enter the semicircular canals. Otoconia are small crystals made of calcium carbonate, sometimes described as "ear stones." The main symptom is a spinning sensation that occurs with changes in head position. If you experience dizziness, please consult an ENT specialist.2026-06-26

Hypotension refers to blood pressure that is lower than normal. Some people have chronically low blood pressure, but when blood pressure that was normal or high suddenly drops, it can lead to serious consequences within a short time. If you experience a sudden drop in blood pressure, please seek prompt evaluation by a medical specialist.2026-06-26

Orthostatic hypotension is a condition in which blood pressure drops sharply when a person suddenly stands up from sitting or lying down, causing dizziness, fainting, and other symptoms. It can also occur in people with high blood pressure. Some studies link it to an increased risk of dementia, so if symptoms recur, please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26
