Vertigo has a long list of causes that have differing durations of symptoms, triggers, and associations with hearing loss.   Definitely see your physician to evaluate your hearing and your balance.  Sometimes viral infections can lead to balance problems.  If you have an upper respiratory infection with congestion, your dizziness could improve as your symptoms resolve; however, it is possible to have persistent dizziness afterward.  Defining the cause of the dizziness will help to determine how quickly things may improve.  Best wishes.
