Nerve damage in the ear can be caused by loud noises, aging, infections, or certain medical conditions. Treatment options for nerve damage in the ear include hearing aids, cochlear implants, and auditory training programs. In some cases, medications and therapy may also be used to manage symptoms.
Vestibulocochlear (CN 8). Damage to this nerve can cause tinnitus (deafness).
The vagus nerve and the glossopharyngeal nerve are two main nerves that run up the neck and into the ear. The vagus nerve supplies the outer ear and the auricle. The glossopharyngeal nerve provides sensation to the middle ear.

The cranial nerve that innervates the ear is the vestibulocochlear nerve (CN VIII). It has two branches: the vestibular nerve that controls balance and the cochlear nerve that controls hearing.
Hitting a nerve in your ear can potentially lead to hearing loss, but it's not the nerve itself that causes deafness. Damage to the ear structures, such as the eardrum, ossicles, or inner ear, can result from trauma, which may affect hearing. In severe cases, trauma can also damage the auditory nerve, leading to permanent hearing loss. However, minor impacts are unlikely to cause deafness.
A conductive hearing loss occurs when the outer or middle ear does not efficiently transfer sound to the inner ear. In the outer ear common causes include ear wax and foreign objects in the ear canal.conductive hearing loss is caused by damage to the bones of the ear,or to the tymanic membrane(eardrum),or to the outer ear. Nerve damage is the only other kind of hearing loss you can have and that is caused by damage to the nerves in the cochlea..I was born without eardrums and have a conductive loss
The medical term for hearing loss resulting from damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve is sensorineural hearing loss.
Hearing loss occurs when there is damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve. Common causes include aging, exposure to loud noises, genetics, infections, and certain medications.
The causes of hearing disorders are Damage to the inner ear. Buildup of ear wax. Ear Infection and abnormal bone growths or tumors. Ruptured Ear drum.
Tinnitus is a recurrent nerve-related twitch in the ear! It can be treated with: 'Ginkgo Biloba'( available from most Health Shops )!
Vestibulocochlear (CN 8). Damage to this nerve can cause tinnitus (deafness).
an acoustic neuroma (tumor of the cranial nerve 8).
Common causes of a broken ear include trauma, such as a blow to the ear or pulling on the ear forcefully. Treatments for a broken ear may include rest, pain medication, and in severe cases, surgery to repair the damage.
The vestibulocochlear nerve innervates the ear.
It's most likely caused by the ear infection. If she has not been treated for the ear infection she should go to the vet immediately If left untreated ear infections can spread and cause permanent damage or death. Refer to the following link. It will explain why an ear infection will cause nystagmus. http:/www.marvistavet.net/html/body_vestibular_disease.html It's highly unlikely the IV caused any damage. It probably saved her life by keeping her hydrated.
Some ear noise can be caused by sinus problems, but it is usually a form of "Tinnitus", which is nerve related and can be treated with "Ginkgo Biloba", available from Health Shops!
