Vertigo is a type of illusion of dizziness. It always gets worse with movement of the head. Loss of consciousness does not occur. The most common cause of recurrent vertigo is "positional vertigo". If the neurological examination of people who have had recurrent vertigo for many years is normal, positional vertigo is diagnosed.
