*Avoidance injuries in the ears, neck or head
**Upper respiratory [[viral]] illness can lead to [[acute]] [[vestibular neuritis]].
**Drug-induced vertigo: Dose reduction or discontinuation of the medication in patients presenting with vertigo may decrease the future incidence.
**Recognized triggers including altered sleep patterns, chocolate, red wine, ripened/aged cheese, can provoke [[vestibular migraine]].
**Head injury can trigger [[epileptic]] vertigo.
**Increased [[stress]] can cause [[psychological]] vertigo.
**Changes in head position can provoke vertigo in acute [[labyrinthitis]], [[benign positional paroxysmal vertigo]], [[cerebellopontine angle]] [[tumor]], [[multiple sclerosis]], [[perilymphatic fistula]].
**[[Perilymphatic fistula]] can be triggered by loud noises, changes in the ear [[pressure]], excessive straining, head trauma.
