Can Water Accumulation In Ear Cause Dizziness?
Age : 20 Height: 179 cms I have dizziness every now and then and my blood pressure is normal. Once it was found that my RBC count was 12. What maybe the reason. I have a eye power of 0.5+ but i dont wear glasses regularly and i also doubt i may have accumulated water in my ear. Do you think this might be a reason?

Hello,
In general, fluid in the middle ear should not cause dizziness.
It definitely causes hearing loss in the affected ear.
There are many other causes for dizziness or headache.
You need to be evaluated by your gp, possibly an ENT specialist, and possibly a neurologist.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
