I woke up a few days ago with the room spinning around me...in fact, I felt the room spinning even before I opened my eyes. After much deliberation I got out of bed, only to get right back and then began the nausea. I know now that its was vestibular neuritis....my question is that the night before I had gone for a yoga class and done a head stand....its the only thing that I had done different in the las coupe of weeks...could this have brought the neuritis on?
I read your query carefully, and I understand your concern. To answer directly carefully, no, yoga doesn't cause vestibular neuritis. There are other inner ear problems which could also cause those symptoms, not only vestibular neuritis.Also, if there are other symptoms (headache, numbness or weakness of the limbs etc.) other causes like stroke can be considered. Not meaning to worry you, vestibular neuritis or inner ear issues are the most probable cause as you say. I hope to have been of help.
