Does anyone know anything about seasonal allergies affecting hearing?


Posted by Jan S

I've been having problems with my hearing, including hearing loss in both ears which fluctuates some, and a distortion to what I do hear.  This started last summer when my seasonal allergies were bad.  Has this happened to anyone and if so, what did you do about them?

My otologist referred me to an otologist/allergist and we are going to be looking into this further, but I thought maybe someone has experienced this too and could give me some insight to this.

I know of someone with allergies who said if she gets tinnitus, she takes a decongestant and it goes away without getting bad like I've experienced.
