My husband got Covid first next few days I got it.Not really a fever but very achy with a slight cough with phem sore throat for both of us but for me a headache and itchy ears that lasted two days.But now one of my ears feels blocked and dull with ringing very annoying make me feel a little off.Has anyone had this happen with Covid?We have had Covid for 7days we feel much better other wise.My husband is needing to get to work how long do you have to wait to retest?We are both in over 60.Thankyou

Hi @carnet - you'll see that I moved your question to this open discussion about COVID isolation and testing:
-Still contagious w/COVID: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/still-contagious-w-covid/
You can see above the great advice that @sueinmn shared from the CDC about isolating.
For your ears, you may want to read through some of the responses on this conversation that @welchllb started:
-Long COVID and Ringing in the ears: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/ringing-in-the-ears/
Have you been able to find any remedies that relieve the ringing temporarily, or is it constant?

Ear tickle for me goes way deep like behind the jaw. Nothing relieves it but it is sporadic. Also, I’ve had tinnitus several years from being a music performer, but Covid certainly increased it! I have some diminished hearing as well now.
I had Covid 2yrs+ ago. Still wondering if all this will go away in time. No one knows
