yp_tracy_minneapolis_48 asked: I was exposed to the sound of loud gunshots at a shooting range, and am now experiencing hearing loss and constant rinigng in my right ear. This occured last Saturday, and is showing no sign of getting better. Is this something I should get checked out and is it too soon to tell if it is permanent or not?

Trish asked: I want to know what events might lead to hearing loss. I’m not talking about blasting music or anything like that. I mean, like, perforation of the ear drum. What would cause that, short of someone jabbing a pointy object into an ear. Something accidental.

white.devil asked: A friend fired a large caliber pistol about 4 inches from my ear. It started bleeding, but not much. This was almost a year ago, and my hearing hasn’t returned. I haven’t been to a doctor or anything like that. Is this going to be permanent? Or is there something a doctor can do to help?

Nadina asked: I don’t mean ear wax, I mean an ear injury. Like falling out of a tree and getting a stick stuck in your ear or something. Would that sort of thing heal so you get your hearing back, or would that sort of injury causing hearing loss be permanent?
