A third of former COVID-19 patients reported tinnitus after infection.

As tinnitus severity increased, the chances of natural recovery decreased.

Severe tinnitus was strongly associated with long-term hearing loss, anxiety, and emotional disorders.

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%. “

“COVID-19 can damage the inner ear as well as the auditory pathway. Hearing loss may be the only symptom of COVID-19 or be a late complication of the disease due to postinfectious inflammation of the nerve tissue as a symptom of long COVID-19. Prolonged conduction of the auditory pathway shows the affinity of the virus to the nervous system as a symptom of long COVID. It is advisable to perform hearing diagnostics in patients after COVID-19 and provide them with specialist care."

Assessment of hearing loss is of utmost importance to safeguard the cochlear function and prevent the progressive deterioration of cochlear hair cells [13, 14]. High frequency hearing loss and referred OAE was noted among significant number of COVID 19 positive patients in our case series.”

“CONCLUSIONS: We found that 30 (40.5%) of the COVID-19 positive patients had sensorineural type of hearing loss. Across all age groups, there were statistically significant differences in frequencies between the COVID-19 positive patients and the control group. There were no significant differences in distributions of comorbidities between the patients with hearing loss and normal hearing patients.”

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.

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.
