Hearing loss due to loud noise?
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?

Hello Buddy,
Normally hearing loss is irreversible, But still it is better to consult an experienced audiologist. You can learn more about hearing loss at Hines Willie
