What is Vestibular Neuritis?

Vestibular neuritis is inflammation of the vestibular nerve, which connects the inner ear to the brain and maintains balance sensation. Typical symptoms of vestibular neuritis include sudden dizziness, balance/walking problems, nausea, and vomiting. The disorder is usually caused by a viral infection of the inner ear, or appear following a viral infection outside the ear (e.g., common cold or influenza). Most epiodes resolve by a few weeks, although vague balance problems may persist for a few months.
