Can people with Ménière's disease run?

Meniere's disease, also known as Meniere's disease, is a common condition in otolaryngology. The main symptoms include dizziness, fluctuating hearing loss, tinnitus, and a sensation of spinning objects.

In treatment, methods such as vasodilation and nerve nutrition are used to improve symptoms of vertigo and hearing loss.

Symptoms of Meniere's disease during the remission period

Meniere's disease is a relatively common inner ear disorder. If it is in the remission phase, there are likely no clinical symptoms because Meniere's disease may cause related clinical symptoms only during an acute episode, such as tinnitus, hearing loss, and a feeling of fullness in the ears. However, specific symptoms can vary greatly from person to person. Therefore, after the onset, it is necessary to visit an otolaryngologist as soon as possible. Audiology testing, otoscopic examination, and head MRI can be conducted to determine the specific cause and extent of the condition, and then targeted treatment can be administered. Generally, during the remission period, medication may not be required, but it is important to ensure rest, improve sleep, and avoid emotional distress.
