Ear Pressure, Vertigo, Dizziness, Tinnitus, Memory Loss. Causes And Treatment?

I have been having pressure in my ears, vertigo , dizziness , tinnitus , and now swelling of the hands and feet . My vertigo does not last for more than a minute or so, and the same with the dizziness. In addition to the physical symptoms, I tend to be really forgetful. If I ask someone a question, I will end up asking them the same question five minutes later because I forgot that I had already asked it. Any ideas of what this might be? Thank you for your time.

Hi. all your symptoms need to be investigated as there is associated swelling of hands and feet. If the patient comes to my consulting with above symptoms I do ENT endoscopy to rule out the local problems like fullness/ redness of the eardrums, Blood pressure, Neck examination for muscle spasms. In addition I would suggest the patient to undergo blood tests for hemogram, blood sugar , urea and creatinine, urine test etc. Can ask for an opinion of Medical Specialist if the tests suggest so . I hope this answer has helped you to understand .
