Meniere's disease is an inner ear disorder. People who suffer from Meniere's disease experience dizziness, tinnitus and sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural hearing loss is the most common form of hearing loss; it is caused by a disorder of the inner ear or the auditory nerve.<\/p>

Meni\u00e8re's disease is named after Dr. Prosper Meni\u00e8re, a French physician. In 1861, Meni\u00e8re discovered that the ear is the cause of vertigo attacks.<\/p>

Different people have different symptoms. In addition, the same person can sometimes have mild and sometimes severe attacks. During severe attacks, you are unable to walk.<\/p>

Meniere's disease is chronic and the course of the disease is progressive. In the later stages of the disease, the attacks of vertigo may diminish or disappear completely. The tinnitus and ear pressure usually remain the same, whereas the hearing loss often worsens over time.<\/p>

There is no cure for Meniere's disease, but the symptoms can be alleviated.<\/p>

Researchers are not sure exactly how many people suffer from Meniere's disease. It is possible that one in 200 people is affected, but it may also be much rarer. Meniere's disease is more common in people between the ages of 30 and 60 and affects more women than men.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
