When you go to the doctor for vertigo, it is common for them to prescribe medication, among which the most common is Serc. But do you know what this medication does?

Simple, it alleviates the vertigo you are experiencing at that moment. But it does not eliminate or cure the cause of your vertigo.

After an accident, whether it be a car, motorcycle, bicycle, football, etc., it is vital to check the cervical spine. Perhaps that neck pain we notice goes away in a few days, but that pain can turn into a subluxation in the cervical vertebrae, and over time (or immediately), it can lead to vertigo.

If instead of going to the hospital doctor for vertigo, who will prescribe medication and perhaps rehabilitation, you visit a chiropractor, they will be able to assess your spine and correct the possible subluxation, thus preventing future episodes of vertigo, other types of disorders, or diseases.
