Understanding Vertigo and Balance Tests (Romberg's u0026 Unterberger's tests)

Follow
Vik Veer - ENT Surgeon

This video will teach you the very basics of balance, nystagmus, vertigo from labyrithitis / vestibular neuritis and the Romberg's and Unterberger's tests. There has been a lot of simplification to allow for understanding. If you want to know more there are some links below to books on the subject.
Obviously this will not be a substitute for seeing a doctor about vertigo, and you should not use this to diagnose yourself. This is clearly not medical advice.

I hope you find this video useful.
