10 Vertigo Causes
Cause of Vertigo #10: Labyrinthitis Infection
Don’t be swayed by the intimidating name of this condition. The labyrinth it describes is the tubing in the inner ear, which is where this and other infections related to vertigo will appear.
This infection most often describes an inflammation of the aural tubing. When this happens, a person can experience vertigo. This type of vertigo can last a lot longer than BPPV because it will be dependent on the severity of inflammation and the length of time that the inflammation is agitated.
Usually, the labyrinthitis infection is caused by a viral infection of some sort, but it can also be triggered by a bacterial infection. This type of vertigo can be accompanied by hearing loss and nausea.
