Know more about the disorder

What is vestibular hypofunction? It's a partial or complete deficit of function in the peripheral or central nervous system. This occurs when the imbalance in the inner ear system leads to miscoordination between the inner ear, eyes, and muscles. It sends error signals to the brain, causing dizziness and imbalance. It has no cure and one needs to be under medication and vestibular rehabilitation.
