Sudden dizziness that clears up after a while may be caused by otoliths. The disease is a form of peripheral vertigo that can occur in patients of any age. The main manifestation is the sudden onset of dizziness when the head position is turned, mostly lasting from a few seconds to several minutes. It can stop abruptly and can recur, mainly due to the detachment of the otolith from the semicircular canal. Patients may also experience visual rotation as well as deafness and tinnitus, which are mainly treated by repositioning. If the dizziness is severe, symptomatic anti-dizziness treatment can be administered at the same time, and the drugs commonly used in clinical practice are vertigo stop and pethidine. Most of the patients need to be repositioned several times before they can be cured, but some patients can be relieved after one repositioning, and then they can have another attack.
