HENRICO, VA (WWBT) -

Dr. Patrick Woodward is on top of vertigo.

If you have ever woken up with a spinning sensation and felt you might fall off the bed, then you have had vertigo.

While there can be many causes for vertigo, the most common has to do with a virus infecting the inner ear.

Using over the counter anti-dizzy pills like dramamine or bonine can help, along with avoiding unnecessary movement and visual stimulation.
