My hearing has changed...help!

Has anyone experienced this?

I had my little boy on Wednesday by planned Caesarean section. It was a lovely, calm experience with no complications & we were discharged on Thursday.

Yesterday I noticed a change in my hearing; one side feels 'blocked' or like I'm under water and I can hear a rumbling sound too - like a fridge humming away in my ear.

I'm exhausted, swollen and about 48hrs post surgery. Is this just another weird thing or should I be more worried?

Congratulations on your baby!
Please do get this looked into. Might be nothing. However my brother permanently lost hearing in one ear after surgery (although unlikely that this is a factor in both) so I'd err on the side of caution if you can.
