Often there will be a temporary hearing loss during an ear infection which clears up when the infection is cured; this hearing loss is caused by a temporary accumulation of fluid and particles and pressure in the ear which prevents the structures of the middle ear and inner ear from functioning properly. In a severe infection, disease organisms such as viruses and bacteria destroy tissue in your body. In the case of an infection in your throat or your intestines, your body can quickly regrow the damaged tissue. If tissue in the ear is destroyed, the body has no mechanism for replacing it; the damage is permanent.

Lung cancer itself typically doesn't directly affect hearing in the same way that it can impact the respiratory system. However, certain factors associated with lung cancer and its treatments could indirectly affect hearing: Chemotherapy: Some chemotherapy drugs used to treat lung cancer can have side effects on the nervous system, including the nerves responsible for hearing. This could potentially lead to hearing changes or issues. Medications: Certain medications prescribed for pain management, symptom control, or to manage side effects of treatment might have auditory effects as a side effect. Infections and Complications: Lung cancer and its treatments can weaken the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to infections. In some cases, infections that affect the ears or the auditory system might occur. Surgery: If surgery is required as part of lung cancer treatment, there could be a risk of damage to nearby nerves that are involved in hearing, although this is relatively rare. Overall Health: The general decline in health associated with advanced lung cancer or aggressive treatments could indirectly affect various bodily systems, potentially including hearing. It's important to note that any changes in hearing should be evaluated by a medical professional. If you or someone you know is experiencing changes in hearing while undergoing lung cancer treatment, it's advisable to discuss these symptoms with a healthcare provider. They can assess whether the changes are related to lung cancer, its treatments, or other factors and provide appropriate guidance and care.
