Dizziness after SARS-CoV-2 Infection is Mutlicausal and its Management Requires a Multidisciplinary Approach

This letter to the editor discusses the study by Daker et al. on dizziness after SARS-CoV-2 infection, which was attributed to either vestibular neuritis or benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. In 16 patients with RT-PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, new-onset post-infectious vertigo was attributed to vestibular neuritis in 12 patients and benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in 4 patients. However, before new-onset dizziness after COVID-19 can be attributed to vestibular neuronitis or benign paroxysmal positional vertigo due to SARS-CoV-2 infection, all other causes such as diseases of the central nervous system, vascular system, heart, endocrine system and peripheral nervous system must be thoroughly ruled out
