Hi all I could do with some advice as I am a bit down at the minute. Are sore legs and feet a symptom of an inner ear infection? I just got back from town and I was all over the place really trying to stay balanced and I've put the sore legs down to my muscles working overtime to keep me standing up! This thing is really getting to me now...sometimes I feel fine then bang..I wake up get out of bed and feeling like I'm tipping over...not nice at all! Subs can you give me some info I'd be really grateful...

Thanks all take care...

...."Are sore legs and feet a symptom of an inner ear infection?".....

Do not know---but---guess since the "Proprioception"
system normally(no inner ear infection/prob)provides 30%---to the brain's balance center calculations---it would seem it could be---the research shows that----that is certainly true for "neck" probs----you can go here to read about----and a "Google" search turns up quite a few items on it.........
