Filling and Botox Applications Vertigo
Filling and Botox applications for vertigo, while less common than other treatments, can be used in certain cases to address specific types of vertigo. Botox injections are sometimes utilized to treat vestibular migraines, a type of migraine headache that includes vertigo as a symptom. The injections are typically administered to the muscles around the head and neck to help alleviate symptoms. Additionally, filler injections may be used in cases where vertigo is caused by a condition called superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome (SCDS). SCDS occurs when there is a hole or thinning in the bone covering one of the semicircular canals in the inner ear, leading to vertigo and balance issues. Filler injections can help "plug" the hole and alleviate symptoms. However, these treatments are not suitable for all cases of vertigo and should be discussed with a healthcare professional experienced in treating vestibular disorders to determine the most appropriate course of action based on the underlying cause of vertigo.
