You might just be dehydrated. Drink lots of water, or maybe even Gatorade (or Zero) to hydrate and load up on electrolytes. Then relax for a couple hours.

Ear barotrauma can cause vertigo. Take a decongestant, make sure you are well hydrated, if it doesn't go away after a few days see a foctor. To prevent it in the future wear earplugs while flying. For detail google ear barotrauma.

Google "Epley Maneuver." You might need to watch a few videos and set a timer. It's the only thing that works for my wife's vertigo spells.

I do this exercise where you sit and you look straight ahead and tilt to one side and wait till the spin stops, then slowly go to the other side. Continue until you have no more spin. It that’s the case. You can also get meds to help with feeling sick.

I am not a doctor, so if something goes wrong based on this advice, I am not at fault. But here’s the gist: Hydration, eating some crackers, granola bars, or fruit, motion sickness pills, and ginger candy or ginger ale.

Lie on your bed with your head hanging over the edge so its upside down.
And slowly move your head left to right.

G to a doctor, vertigo is also caused by ear infections
Chris *******
@Jon *******
it’s an inner ear problem but it’s not caused by an infection. I’ve had two different types and it can cause severe effects. The first time I had it it was diagnosed as BPV (Benign Paroxysmal Vertigo) and was the result of the crystals in your inner ear shifting. It was rectified by doing the Eppley Maneuver during physical therapy. The second time I had it it was diagnosed as vestibular neuritis which is an inflammation of the inner ear. This could be caused by a possible infection but lots of possibilities. I could not focus my eyes and the room was spinning so badly it made me violently sick. Went to the ER and they thought I was having a stroke because my pupils were bouncing around so badly. There’s no cure, just need to rest with eyes closed. It was horrible both times but the effects from the neuritis was much more severe. There’s nothing you can get at ****
or probably even the pharmacy. See a doctor if it doesn’t clear up in a day or two.Jon ********
@Chris ******
I had it and a number of people in my office got it as well….in my experience it is contagious although it’s viewed as not in the medical websitesJon ********

Sounds crazy, but it's not. You need to sit om the edge of a chair and put your head between your knees.
Antihistamine will help unblock anything up there that may have been caused from the flying
