Which symptom is part of Meniere disease?

• A. Vertigo.
• B. Headache only.
• C. Visual acuity loss.
• D. Abdominal pain.

Answer: (A)

Vertigo is the key symptom of Menière disease. This inner ear disorder involves abnormal fluid pressure in the labyrinth, leading to episodes of spinning sensation that can last from minutes to hours. Many people also have fluctuating hearing loss and tinnitus during these spells, sometimes with a feeling of fullness in the ear. The other options don’t fit because headaches aren’t a defining feature of this condition, visual acuity loss isn’t typical since the problem affects the inner ear rather than the eye, and abdominal pain is unrelated to inner ear disorders. Recognizing vertigo as the presenting symptom helps distinguish Menière disease from other conditions.
