Labyrinthitis Market Overview

Labyrinthitis, also known as vestibular neuritis, is an inflammation of the inner ear or the nerves that connect the inner ear to the brain due to a variety of reasons such as infection by measles, mumps, trauma, autoimmune etc. Labyrinthitis shows various symptoms such as hearing loss, speech problems, double vision, abnormal gait, dizziness, nystagmus (rapid and undesired eye motion), vertigo, ringing in the ears, etc. Labyrinthitis is triggered by cold flu and occur as a single attack, or a series of attacks, which generally resolves on its own over three to six weeks.
