Ear Ringing A Sign of Chronic CoVid

  Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/btUUsK2Sk1s   If you have a history of the ear noise called tinnitus there is a significant chance that it will worsen during the pandemic.  British researchers now report their study of 3103 tinnitus sufferers in 48 countries.   Those with overt CoVid symptoms were 40% more likely to suffer worse ringing.  Those who tested positive were 58% more likely to do so.  Even without becoming ill, social distancing restrictions triggered more ear noise in 34%.  Financial stress made it worse in 49%.  Pandemic-associated health concerns triggered worse tinnitus in 32%.   While CoVid seemed to trigger it in only a few anecdotal cases, developing the disease and even worrying about that possibility makes it worse.   https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpubh.2020.592878/full   #covid #tinnitus #stress
