About this condition
Meniere's disease involves excess fluid buildup in the inner ear, causing recurrent vertigo attacks along with hearing problems. While less common than BPPV, it's increasingly recognized in India among middle-aged adults. Attacks are unpredictable and can be very disabling, but medications and lifestyle changes help control symptoms.
