Why is it important?
This is the first prospective study to demonstrate just how common the neck pathology occurs in patients with dizziness, vertigo, BPPV and concussion.
Perspectives
Medical providers need to be aware that they need to assess the neck in patients with dizziness, vertigo, BPPV and concussion. This article proves that neck pathology is more often than present in these patients. If the neck is not addressed recovery may be negatively impacted and delayed.
