Vestibular Neuronitis - Signs and Symptoms

Signs and Symptoms

The main symptom of vestibular neuronitis is vertigo, which appears suddenly, often with nausea and vomiting. This can be made worse by head movement. Vertigo usually lasts for several days or weeks. In rare cases it can take months to go away entirely. Vestibular neuronitis does not lead to loss of hearing. A common sign is horizontal nystagmus with the fast beat towards the healthy ear.
