Treating Residual Vertigo after Resetting Otoliths from Liver and Kidney
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common peripheral vertigo. After manual reduc-tion treatment, most patients will improve their symptoms, and the positional vertigo and nystagmus disappear, but they still have residual dizziness, unsteady walking, and headache. Symptoms such as drowsiness and confusion are often accompanied by emotional disorders. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main pathogenesis of the disease is stagnation of liver qi, which causes the upward movement of qi to disturb the head; or qi stagnation turns into fire, causing wind and yang to move easily; or old age, physical weakness, kidney essence deficiency, and brain and marrow malnutrition. Therefore, the treatment is based on regulating qi, replenishing the marrow, nourishing water and trapping wood. This article mainly discusses the treatment of residual symptoms of otolithiasis after reduction from the perspec-tive of liver and kidney.
