Does Meniere's disease spread?
Meniere's disease is not contagious. The occurrence of Meniere's disease is due to the stimulation of the inner ear caused by fluid accumulation in the inner ear labyrinth, leading to symptoms such as fluctuating hearing loss, tinnitus, ear fullness, and vertigo. The pathogenesis of Meniere's disease is not yet fully understood. When symptoms such as vertigo occur, it is important to visit a hospital promptly for comprehensive diagnostic tests, including cranial MRI, high-resolution CT of the temporal bone, and pure tone audiometry, to confirm the diagnosis, exclude cervical vertigo and cerebrovascular insufficiency in the posterior circulation, and under the guidance of a specialist, use vasodilators, nerve-nourishing agents, and vestibular suppressants to alleviate related symptoms like vertigo.
