Is there any connection between labyrinthitis and sinusitis?
Question:
Suffered from labyrinthitis last year for 2 months or so. Have had chronic sinusitis for 5 months or so of this year. I was just wondering does having had labyrinthitis tell me anything about my current sinus problems? Apologies if this is a stupid question.

A sinus infection can spread and invade the inner ear, causing labyrinthitis. Bacterial infection is a common cause of labyrinthitis. But there are other causes of it too. In fact, when I’ve had sinus infections, when I’ve started getting dizzy I know it’s spreading to my inner ear and it’s time to see a doctor. Invariably the doctor will see my eardrum is bulging out, a sign that infection has reached there. — Steven D. Litvintchouk Email: sdlit…@earthlinkNOSPAM.net Remove the NOSPAM before replying to me.

I am the same as Steve getting an inner ear infection. I have lost my balance and fell down. I go to the doctor then. shirleyann (new user name)
