Meniere’s Disease – Causes, Symptoms, and Remedies For Meniere’s

What Is Meniere’s Disease?

In a nutshell, Meniere’s disease is a disorder or abnormality in the inner ear that causes dizziness or loss of balance – often there is the general illusion that the world is spinning around. It is usually only in one ear, though it can progress to the other if the conditions are the same. Menier’s sufferers are sometimes thought to be under the influence of alcohol when out as they may stagger in pretty much the same way as a drunk person.

Menier’s Disease Natural Treatment

It is generally accepted that there is no cure available as such, although steps can be taken to alleviate and perhaps control the symptoms of meneirs. A change of diet, lifestyle habits, and actual surgery may have to be implemented to see a general improvement.

For this reason we talk more about ‘remedies’ than ‘cures’ for menier’s disease. This is in fact similar to many treatments for tinnitus sufferers where the condition is controlled rather than ‘cured’.

What Are The Causes Of Tinnitus and Vertigo?

A build-up of fluid in the endolymphatic system of the inner ear can lead to dizziness and loss of balance

Meniere’s disease is often accompanied by tinnitus as well as vertigo. Both the environment and heredity play a part with meniere’s sufferers, each individual is different. However it is estimated that for at least 10% of sufferers the condition is genetic – runs in the family. This could be due to an irregularity in the inner ear that creates blood-flow restriction, or a auto-immune deficiency that the sufferer has inherited.

Viral infections that may cause a build-up of fluid in the inner ear, can also be responsible for causing meniers symptoms. Excessive fluid in the membranous labyrinth of the inner ear known as the endolymphatic system, can also cause dizziness and loss of balance, which in turn can  be an indication of meniere’s disease.

The age group between 40-60 in both men & women tends to be the most suseptable. Excessive noise as well as food and drink or diet, can also be influential with meniere’s sufferers. Similar to tinnitus sufferers, it can also be caused or exacerbated by medication – especially medication that leads to high blood pressure in the user.

It is often confused with vestibular migrane which has symptoms similar to meniere’s disease. Anxiety or situations that cause a rise in blood pressure should be avoided if possible.

What are the Symptoms of Tinnitus?

Head pain, dizziness, and a fullness in the inner ear, could be symptoms of Meniere’s Disease

The symptoms are recurring bouts of severe vertigo (similar to the feelings of standing on the edge of a cliff for some sufferers), general dizziness, and the feeling the the world is spinning under their feet. Hearing loss – full (in extreme cases) or partial (more common) – and all the symptoms of tinnitus, including whining, ringing or rushing noises in the ears can be attributable to meniere’s disease.

People suffering from meniere’s disease aften feel a ‘fullness’ or pressure in the affected ear or ears. This may lead to headaches or general feelings of  pressure in the side of their head.

In extreme cases it can or may, lead to sudden collapse and injury amongst sufferers – also known as ‘drop attacks.

What To Do About It?

The first thing to be done is to seek professional medical advice! As with all illness or sicknesses it is imperative that the right condition is both diagnosed and treated. However from an alternative medicine point of view – or just practical common sense – it would make sense to avoid any situations or foods that may well exaccerbate the problem.

There are also alternative, natural remedies for both tinnitus and vertigo, that many are choosing to try out for themselves. One of these remedies is CBD hemp Oil. This oil, illegal until fairly recently as it is derived from the hemp (cannabis) plant, can be taken directly into the ear to soften ear wax.

When taking CBD for vertigo, It can also be taken orally where it works alongside the bodies endocannabinoid system via the CB1 and CB2 receptors that innitiate the healing process, to effect a cure for tinnitus and many other bodily ailments.
