A member asked:
If i have the flu will it cause bell's palsy or vertigo of ears ?

Generally no: The flu or any illness can be accompanied by an outbreak of Bell's palsy but most are spontaneous. If the flu impacts the inner ear canals, vertigo can sometimes occur temporarily. These associations are uncommon but could happen.
