I'm having this ongoing burning sensation in my left ear, and it's been about 15 days since it started. It seems to have gotten worse after I had a cold and cough. There's no pain, just a really extreme burning feeling. What could this be, and should I be worried?

I'm wondering if there's any chance that my positional vertigo could be linked to my ongoing issues with indigestion, acidity, and other gastric problems. I've been dealing with this for about four years now, and it really feels like my vertigo might be connected to these digestive issues. Could you help me understand if there's a connection?

Positional vertigo is typically caused by inner ear problems rather than indigestion, acidity, or gastric problems. However, it is possible for these gastrointestinal issues to indirectly exacerbate vertigo symptoms due to the close connection between the inner ear and the digestive system. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using over-the-counter medications such as Meclizine (brand name: Bonine) for vertigo and antacids like Tums for indigestion and acidity. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet, staying hydrated, and managing stress levels can also help improve your overall well-being.
