Teddi Mellencamp said she injured herself while rushing to the aid of her daughter in the middle of the night.

The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" alum, 40, took to Instagram on Sunday and opened up about the incident in which she fell to the floor and busted her lip while responding to her daughter’s cries.

"Anyone got any hot tips on how to get rid of Vertigo?" she asked of her followers in the social media post of her injured lip and face. "At 4am, Slate yelled out for me to please come to her room and as any Mom would I jumped up at mock speed and sprinted in there."
