Hearing loss likely accompanies vestibular dysfunction. Not hard to explain imbalance.
Then why would hearing aids fix it? I didn’t think vestibular dysfunction worked like that
Hearing aids won’t fix vestibular dysfunction but hearing has to help with having an additional sense. There is also a link between hearing loss and cognitive decline and hearing aids may help with that as well.
