Covid-19 Causes Ear Problems
Covid-19 not only causes loss of taste and smell, respiratory distress, but also leads to hearing and balance disorders. Also, aggravates tinnitus symptoms, reveals a new study.
The factors that may play a role in the relationship between Covid-19 and hearing are multifold. Covid-19 is known to have inflammatory effects, including in neurological tissue, which can exacerbate other problems, said Colleen Le Prell, from the University of Texas at Dallas. Inflammation can damage the auditory and vestibular pathways in the peripheral and central nervous system, just as it damages smell and taste pathways, and other neural systems, Le Prell said.
