While their size and shape vary with location in the nervous system, most neurones contain the same parts: a cell body; a number of highly-branched outgrowths of the cell body called dendrites; a single, long nerve fibre (or axon) extending from the cell body; and branches at the end of the nerve fibre (axon terminals).

Benign positional vertigo (BPV) is the most common cause of vertigo. It causes a sudden sensation of spinning. It can also make you feel like your head is spinning from the inside. If you have BPV, you can have brief periods of mild or intense dizziness. An episode is generally triggered by changing the position of your head.
