Symptoms of Meniere's Disease in Children
-
Vertigo
-
Vertigo is one of the most distressing symptoms of Meniere's. The onset of the vertigo is normally sudden and severe during an attack.
Hearing Loss
-
Hearing loss in one ear is typical of a Meniere's patient. Hearing loss increases over time.
Tinnitus
-
Varying degrees of sound in the ears is common, although the type of sound varies depending on the patient.
Sense of Fullness
-
The feeling of having "plugged ears" is extremely common in Meniere's sufferers. Some patients describe the feeling as pressure not unlike that felt when flying.
No Other Symptoms
-
There are only four symptoms of Meniere's disease. While many patients have bouts of nausea or vomiting, this is more likely caused by vertigo and is not considered a symptom of Meniere's.
