Suggest Treatment For Severe Vertigo In A 12 Month Old Girl
What would cause extreme veritgo in a 12 month old, seemingly healthy, little girl? We have confirmed it is not an ear infection, or at least the doctor she recently saw claimed it was not just by looking into her ears. Would she be able to tell immeditaely that it was not an inner-ear infection just by looking? Do other tests need to be done?

Acute ear infections do not cause vertigo since it only involves the middle ear at max. she may need a referral to a pediatric neurologist for further evaluation
