ANOTHER NEW SYMPTOM OF OMICRON HAS APPEARED
The ZOE Covid Symptom Study App, which collects and lenses the data of those infected with Covid-19 in the UK, has announced another new symptom of the Omicron variant.
A surprising symptom that has recently become widespread in the ZOE Covid Symptom Study Application used in the United Kingdom, which records the course of the pandemic and the effects of the virus, has appeared: Tinnitus.
Tin Decitus, which occurs as a sign of Omicron, was among the top 20 most commonly reported symptoms. Patients who used the application noted that tinnitus was something they experienced after taking Omicron. Following these reports, the ZOE Covid Tracking App has added the symptom to the top 20 most frequently reported symptoms dec every week.
In the past, ear pain had been observed in cases of Omicron, but only now, according to reports obtained, the symptom has become more common than originally thought.

IT CAN ALSO BE SEEN IN FULLY VACCINATED PEOPLE
Last year, a team of Stanford University experts and a study had found that the Omicron variant can cause problems in the ear. The study found that there are symptoms such as severe ear pain, ear numbness, and even temporary hearing loss that can persist after the infection has passed.
It also revealed that these symptoms can also occur in fully vaccinated people. Dr. said: “Pain is often associated with the tinnitus. Surprisingly, these symptoms, although are much rarer, can also occur in fully vaccinated patients.”
Doctors also advised those in hearing loss, tinnitus and dizziness not to ignore these symptoms and take tests.
