I have been completing the exercise exercises the Hospital suggested and resting a lot but I still feel strange in the head like a dull dizziness and only mildly nauseous but I am wondering how long I should persevere with the symptoms. and whether taking the homeopathic Croan medicine might help

- 1-2 weeks

Hello I get it. That shaky, nauseous feeling hanging around even after the hospital, especially when all the tests are clear but your head still just doesn’t feel right – it’s really unnerving.but dont worry we are here to help you out 😊

YOUR CONCERN

–You had bad vertigo and nausea at first. –Now it’s a mild, dull dizziness, like a 1-3 out of 10, with nausea popping up sometimes. – Nothing specific seems to cause it. – You’re getting better, but not totally back to normal.

This sort of pattern often points to a Vata-Pitta imbalance in your head and inner ear, which is kind of like:

* Vertigo after an illness * Inner ear irritation (vestibular neuritis / labyrinthitis) * Just being run-down from the hospital stay.

In Ayurveda, we call this Bhrama (dizziness) caused by too much Vata, sometimes with a little Pitta mixed in.

HOW LONG DOES THIS USUALLY LAST?

* After a bad vertigo attack, it’s normal to feel a bit dizzy for 2-4 weeks, sometimes even up to 6. This is especially true if: * You’re someone who tends to get anxious. * You’re resting a lot but still worried about how you feel. * Your sleep or digestion is off.

Since your symptoms are mild and not getting worse, it’s usually just your body getting back to normal, nothing dangerous.

When to See a Doctor Right Away

Please go straight to your doctor if you notice any of these: * Suddenly much worse dizziness * New vomiting * Weakness in your arms or legs * Slurred speech * A really bad headache * Double vision

If none of those are happening, then gentle care is the way to go.

ABOUT HOMEOPATHIC CROAN MEDICINE

* Homeopathic remedies are usually very gentle. * They won’t mess with your recovery, but we don’t have much proof they actually help. * Only use it if a qualified homeopath already told you to.

From an Ayurvedic point of view, oil treatments and things that calm your nervous system tend to work better for post-vertigo stuff than homeopathy.

AYURVEDIC TIPS (Easy &Safe)

1. Calm Your Head & Nerves Before bed, put 2-3 drops of Kshirabala Taila or Brahmi Taila on: * The top of your head * Behind your ears * The soles of your feet

This helps settle that Vata energy in your head.

2. Support From Within (if you’re not on strong meds) * Have warm milk (half a cup) with a tiny bit of nutmeg at night. * Stick to light, warm meals (like soups, rice, lentil stew). * Avoid: * Cold drinks * Skipping meals * Too much screen time * Sudden head movements

3. Breathing (Really Important!) Try Bhramari Pranayama (humming bee breath): * Do 5-7 rounds, twice a day. * This directly helps calm your inner ear and eases anxiety.

4. Keep Up with Hospital Exercises Yes, keep doing those vestibular exercises, but: * Go slow. * Stop before you get exhausted. * It’s okay to have mild symptoms during the exercises; just don’t let them get worse after.

Don’t Worry

What you’re going through sounds like you’re slowly getting better, not like you’re failing to heal. Most people feel like themselves again by the 3rd or 4th week.

* You can keep doing this gentle recovery for another 2-3 weeks. * Homeopathy is fine if you’re already taking it, but don’t just rely on that. * Ayurvedic nerve calming can help you feel stable faster.

Hope you feel steady and balanced soon.

Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

Hlo,

Thanks for the details. Let’s break this down carefully. From what you’ve described: You were hospitalized on Dec 29–30 with severe nausea and vertigo.

- Since then (≈1 week), you have mild persistent dizziness and slight nausea. - You’ve been following hospital exercises and resting, with partial improvement. - Dizziness severity: mild (1–3/10). You’re asking about duration of symptoms and whether homeopathic Croan might help.

1. Duration & Expectations - After an acute episode of vertigo or vestibular disturbance, mild residual dizziness (“head fog” or imbalance) can persist for 1–3 weeks, especially if your inner ear or balance system was affected. - With consistent vestibular exercises and rest, most people gradually improve. - Persistent or worsening symptoms beyond 3–4 weeks, or if you develop severe nausea, vomiting, hearing loss, new headaches, double vision, or weakness, should prompt re-evaluation.

2. Homeopathic Medicines - Croan (or similar homeopathic remedies) have no strong scientific evidence for treating vertigo or dizziness. - They are generally safe, but should not replace medical treatment or investigation if symptoms persist.

3. Ayurvedic Considerations Ayurvedic approaches often focus on digestive and neurological balance. For post-vertigo weakness, practitioners may suggest: - Shirovasti or Nasya (oil therapies for head and nerves) - Brahmi, Ashwagandha, or Jatamansi for nervous system support - Diet: light, easy-to-digest foods, avoid excessive salt and fried foods - Hydration and rest

Investigations could include: - Ear, nose, throat exam (for vestibular function) - Blood tests to rule out infections or vitamin deficiencies - MRI/CT if central causes are suspected

4. Practical Tips - Continue vestibular exercises daily. - Hydrate well, maintain stable blood pressure. - Move slowly when standing up.

Keep a symptom diary: triggers, time of day, associated nausea. If dizziness worsens or becomes severe, or you develop hearing loss, headache, or vision changes, see a doctor urgently.

✅ Summary: Mild post-vertigo dizziness for 1–3 weeks is often normal. Homeopathic Croan may not help scientifically, but is usually safe. Supportive care, vestibular exercises, and gradual return to activity are key. Persistent or worsening symptoms need re-evaluation.

YOUR SYMPTOMS AFTER A SEVERE EPISODE OF VERTIGO AND NAUSEA ARE VERY COMMON AND FROM AN AYURVEDIC CLINICAL PERSPECTIVE THIS USUALLY INDICATES THAT THE INNER BALANCE SYSTEM AND NERVOUS CONTROL ARE STILL WEAK AND RECOVERING EVEN THOUGH THE ACUTE PHASE HAS PASSED THE DULL DIZZINESS HEAVY HEAD FEELING AND MILD NAUSEA SHOW THAT RECOVERY IS HAPPENING BUT SLOWLY ESPECIALLY AFTER HOSPITALIZATION AND AT THIS STAGE IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONTINUE THE BALANCE EXERCISES GIVEN TO YOU AS THEY HELP THE BODY RELEARN STABILITY COMPLETE REST FOR TOO LONG CAN DELAY HEALING SO GENTLE MOVEMENT WITH CARE IS ADVISED

FROM AN AYURVEDIC MEDICAL POINT OF VIEW SUPPORTING THE NERVOUS SYSTEM AND DIGESTIVE BALANCE IS ESSENTIAL YOU MAY START SARASWATARISHTA 10 ML WITH EQUAL WATER TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD ASHOKARISHTA IS NOT REQUIRED HERE YOU MAY ALSO TAKE BRAHMI VATI 1 TABLET TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD AND GODANTI BHASMA 250 MG TWICE DAILY WITH HONEY OR WARM WATER FOR HEAD HEAVINESS AND DIZZINESS

IF NAUSEA PERSISTS YOU CAN TAKE HINGWASHTAK CHURNA A PINCH MIXED IN WARM WATER ONCE OR TWICE DAILY AFTER MEALS

RECOVERY GENERALLY TAKES TWO TO FOUR WEEKS SOMETIMES A LITTLE LONGER DEPENDING ON AGE AND STRENGTH AS LONG AS THE SYMPTOMS ARE NOT WORSENING AND ARE SLOWLY REDUCING THIS IS A POSITIVE SIGN IF YOU NOTICE INCREASING DIZZINESS SEVERE HEADACHE VOMITING OR ANY NEW SYMPTOMS THEN FURTHER EVALUATION IS NECESSARY OTHERWISE WITH CONSISTENT CARE AND PATIENCE YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO IMPROVE STEADILY
