Answer 1

The correct option is C Meniere's syndrome

Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear, that causes spontaneous episodes of vertigo along with fluctuating hearing loss, ringing in the ear (tinnitus) and sometimes a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear. Meniere's disease affects only one ear. Pilot and divers avoid high-pressure zones of the ear, which can lead to Meniere's syndrome i.e., even in minor cold and cough blockage of Eustachian tubes can occur.
