Cannon

A woman watching a Civil War re-enactment experienced vertigo for four days after being affected by the blast of a cannon firing metres away, a GP reports.

Indirect trauma from the cannon blast triggered the 37-year-old’s benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), says Ohio GP Dr Ryan Dale Kauffman.
