What is a common manifestation of vestibular trauma to the inner ear?

Vertigo is a common manifestation of vestibular trauma to the inner ear because this condition directly affects the vestibular system, which is responsible for maintaining balance and spatial orientation. When the inner ear suffers trauma, it can disrupt the normal functioning of the vestibular apparatus, leading to sensations of spinning or dizziness that characterize vertigo. This symptom arises from the miscommunication between the brain and the sensory signals that help determine balance. In contrast, while hearing loss, ringing in the ears, and a sensation of fullness in the ear may occur due to inner ear problems, they are more closely associated with auditory (hearing) issues rather than the vestibular (balance) issues specifically related to trauma.
