Short attacks of intense vertigo aggravated by neck movements is usually benign paroxysmal positional vertigo or BPPV. vestibular neuritis will have severe persistent vertigo not related to neck movements. Dix Hallipike maneuver will confirm the diagnosis
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
