@andy@bell.bz it may be low frequency hearing loss from the infection. There's an over the counter nasal steroid called Nasonex which helped me with this. It took a few months. Recommend seeing an audiologist to get an audiogram and GP can probably refer you to an ENT. Feel free to DM me if you want to hear about my experience and what worked. I did a lot of research and learned a lot about the inner ear (maybe too much).
