Post-COVID-19 Syndrome: Audiometric Findings in Patients with Audiological Symptoms
“The prevalence of hearing loss in post-COVID-19 patients with audiological symptoms is 38% in this study. The degree of hearing loss and type of hearing loss in post-COVID-19 patients with audiological symptoms ranges from mild to predominantly sensorineural anacusis as the degree of hearing loss increases. The prevalence of sudden sensorineural hearing loss in post-COVID-19 patients with audiological symptoms in this study is 8.5%. “

“Our findings suggest several possible mechanisms for sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) in COVID-19 patients, and COVID-19 infection could have deleterious effects on the inner ear, specifically on the hair cells of the cochlea despite patients being asymptomatic and early identification of SSNHL in COVID-19patients can save the hearing and also patient.”

COVID-19, Dizziness & Vertigo - What’s the link, and what to do? | Physiothérapie Avantex

8-30% of people with COVID-19 report spinning vertigo, dizziness, imbalance, and gait disturbance, sometimes with tinnitus or hearing loss.

COVID-19, like other lung infections, may cause labyrinthitis and vestibular neuritis, leading to these symptoms.

How COVID-19 Can Attack the Inner Ear

“New research finds that cells in the ear are susceptible to infection with SARS-CoV-2, causing symptoms that include dizziness, ear ringing, and hearing loss.

Experts say that other viruses may also cause hearing loss, and newborns can be especially at risk.”

“Audio-vestibular consequences of COVID-19 are less reported compared to other symptoms of neurological involvement, such as gustatory or olfactory dysfunction, which have become key indicators aiding in the diagnosis of the infection. Among these disorders, the commonly reported presentation is that of vestibular neuronitis.”

SARS-CoV-2 infection of the inner ear

SARS-CoV-2 can infect inner ear cells, specifically hair cells and Schwann cells, which are crucial for hearing and balance.

Some COVID-19 patients developed hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo, suggesting a link between the virus and these symptoms.
