riddle you ragged

if the ear holds the key to one's sense of balance, will cutting your ear off at moments of unbearable dizziness restore your balance or will it make you dizzy for the rest of your life?

ps. vertiginous, defined as "affected by vertigo, dizzy, or causing vertigo" by Dictionary.com is the adjective for vertigo. Not "vertiguous" as I had previously thought, and unknowingly invented. haha. i stand corrected mr. webster.
