Shea Ear Clinic - Meniere's Disease


Treated by:
John J. Shea, Jr., M.D.
John R. Emmett, M.D.
Paul F. Shea, M.D.

Meniere’s Disease is due to an excess accumulation of fluid in the inner ear. This can cause a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear, roaring, ringing or other noise in the ear, fluctuations in hearing, or dizziness which may be severe. All of the symptoms may or may not be present in an attack. Medication taken by mouth is often not enough to adequately control the symptoms, and in this case surgical treatment (transtympanic perfusion) is available. Perfusion is usually able to control the dizziness and stop the progression of the disease.
