### Human:\nis vertigo related to ear pain? . i've been having an acute pain in my ear that comes and goes. the pain only lasts for very brief seconds then it goes away. i also awake with "juicy" ears this repeats during the day with itchiness. today i had vertigo for several hours; everything was spinning nausea and headache. last time my doctor said i was dehydrated. but now that happened again i wonder if my ear symptoms are related with it if so what could be possibly wrong with my ear? (infection allergy? ) thanks in advance.\n\n### Assistant: vertigo is a inner ear infection that somehow can be caused by anxiety or panic attacks or at least that's what they told my brother. he was having really bad spells from it.
