Can severe tinnitus cause otolithiasis?

In real life, people often have symptoms of tinnitus, their duration is longer or shorter, and the onset is not regular, although it does not cause actual trouble to production and life. But there are still many people who are worried about whether they have otolithiasis? So, does otolithiasis cause tinnitus?

Next, let's learn about otolithiasis.

First of all, we need to know what otolithiasis is and how it is pathological. Otolithiasis is a typical paroxysmal positional disorder caused by the irregular movement of the detached lower canalith, which usually causes many kinds of symptoms, but usually does not cause tinnitus. So, what exactly do people with otolithiasis exhibit?

From the clinical results, otolithiasis usually causes three types of symptoms.

The first condition is lightheadedness. When the human body tilts its head backwards or gets up, it is easy to get dizzy and unable to see clearly, which is a specific manifestation of otolithiasis. Of course, if this happens, it may also be due to insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by too fast speed, and it is not clear that it is not necessarily due to otolithiasis.

The second condition is more serious than the first, and if you feel vomiting or nausea while feeling dizzy, it is necessary to be vigilant, and in this case it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.

The third symptom is transient hemiplegia. Although otolithiasis is a benign disease, the damage it causes to the human body is very large. Otolithiasis at a certain stage may cause a sense of weakness in the limbs, and because it lasts for a short time, it is a temporary hemiplegia.

If you have this symptom, you must see a doctor in time to avoid delaying the condition.

After reading the above, you should have a clearer understanding of the symptoms of otolithiasis, the symptoms of otolithiasis are not fixed, dizziness, vomiting, nausea and even hemiplegia may be caused by otolithiasis. Therefore, it is also recommended that you should always pay attention to your physical condition, and you must seek medical attention in time if you feel unwell.

Otolithiasis is also called benign positional vertigo, which can cause tinnitus.

Guidance: When there is a sudden appearance of such dizziness due to head rotation, tinnitus should go to the hospital for surgical reduction.

Severe tinnitus may cause otolithiasis.

1. Trauma, head trauma, braid injuries and other injuries occur several days or weeks after injury. It can also be seen after stapes surgery and in barotrauma of the inner ear.

2. Obstruction of the anterior branch of the vestibular artery.

3. Ear diseases, middle ear and mastoid infection, labyrinthitis, vestibular neuritis, sudden deafness, Meniere's disease in remission, etc. may be caused by utricular plaque infarction, or bilateral vestibular asymmetry.

4. The sediment of the crest (crest lithopathy) may be a kind of calcium carbonate crystal in the otolith, which is normally implanted on the balloon and utricle plaque of the inner ear, and the spontaneous metamorphosis and labyrinthity of the utricle sand membrane are lost.

1. Hereditary factors: There are more direct ancestors and descendants of patients with otosclerosis, about 54% have a family history, some people think that it is autosomal dominant or recessive inheritance, and abnormal genes can be found in more than half of the cases.

2. Endocrine disorders are more common in the onset of puberty, with a high incidence in women, and can accelerate the progression of the disease during pregnancy, childbirth and menopause, which is believed to be related to hormone levels.

3. Factors for the development of bone labyrinth cysts Human beings have completed the development of bone labyrinth cysts at birth, but there is a defect in the process of development and ossification left in the endocartilage layer of the anterior vestibular margin, which is called anterior window fissure. There are fibrous connective tissue bundles and cartilage tissue in the fissure, which can continue to exist or ossify in adulthood and produce otosclerosis lesions, and the otosclerosis lesions seen in clinical and temporal bone pathology also start here.

4. Autoimmune factors and other Arslan and RIECI used histochemical staining to study the otosclerosis lesions, and found that in the active lesions, there were changes in mucopolysaccharide polymerization and the reduction and fracture of tissue fibers and collagen fibers, which were similar to pathological changes such as rheumatoid arthritis. In addition, it has been found that disorders of enzyme metabolism are responsible for the formation of stapes.

Otolithiasis can cause vertigo episodes after head rotation, and the vertigo duration lasts for about 1 minute at each episode, with a certain degree of self-limitation, if it is determined that it is otolithiasis, you can go to the hospital otolaryngology department for manual reduction, and vibrations such as head rotation can cause otolithiasis.

Hello, otolithiasis is a vertigo that occurs when the head is in a specific position, and there are generally no symptoms such as tinnitus and hearing loss. Vestibular function testing can confirm the diagnosis, and manual reduction can be done**. Be careful not to eat spicy or greasy food. Do not get water in your ears when bathing.

According to the information you provided, if you feel that the world is spinning, it may be caused by vertigo, in this case, you can go to the hospital for a check-up, do a CT of the head, or MRI If there is no problem with the CT and MRI of the head, you can go to the waiting department to check whether it is due to the ear.

Hello: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, also known as otolithiasis, is a peripheral vestibular lesion manifested by transient vertigo and characteristic nystagmus induced by head position changes, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is more common in the elderly and women, and may be related to the accelerated degeneration of otoliths, decreased absorption capacity and reduced stability of otoliths caused by aging, hormone level changes, calcium metabolism disorders and osteoporosis, etc., may also be predisposing factors, Secondary benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is secondary to other otological or systemic disorders, the most common causes being head trauma and vestibular neuritis, others being Meniere's disease, sudden deafness, infection of the middle or inner ear, and long-term bed rest during surgery.

Otolithiasis refers to brief paroxysmal episodes of vertigo and nystagmus that occur when the head moves rapidly to a particular head position.

**: The first type of patient is unknown and idiopathic. It is more common in the elderly and women, and may be related to aging, hormone level changes, calcium metabolism disorders, and osteoporosis.

The other type is secondary, mostly secondary to head trauma and vestibular neuritis, but also secondary to Meniere's disease, sudden deafness, middle or inner ear infection, ear surgery, etc.

The disease is more common in middle-aged people and slightly more common in women.

Tinnitus is a complication of many diseases, otolithiasis itself cannot cause tinnitus, and one of the pathological structures of otolithiasis is the oval sac and the semicircular canal, which are different structures. Some people are accompanied by tinnitus, which will cause ischemia of cochlear structures and even neurogenic tinnitus.

Otolithiasis itself does not cause tinnitus, but it can cause some sub-health conditions of otolithiasis, which can induce tinnitus. There is no inevitable relationship between the two before, otolithiasis may cause tinnitus, and when the head is turned, dizziness will occur, and you should go to the hospital for surgery and reduction.

Under normal circumstances, patients do not have tinnitus, but some people do have tinnitus, especially neurological tinnitus is a product of sub-health, otolithiasis itself does not cause tinnitus, but it can cause some sub-health of otolithiasis, which can induce tinnitus.
