Hearing Information

He is 5 months old and this was present at birth, but today the doctor just said something about it. He has been to like three different docs and this guy is an ENT and he is the one that mentioned it. It is in the neck/head region. I just read it only affects 1% of the infants born in the US. I have suspected hearing problems since birth and he also failed his newborn hearing test. The right ear failed a hearing test but the left one didn’t. The Nevus is on the right side as well. This doctor also noticed that my son’s right eye is droopy (which I also noticed but no one will listen to me.) I guess my question is do you know if having a Nevus can contribute to hearing or seeing problems? Does anyone else have a similiar situation? Thank you!

Im in my 30’s with a childhood history of chronic ear infections (the docs say I have alot of scar tissue) , tubes in my ears 4 times, my early years of school were spent in speech therapy, in my 20’s I had a head injury which only made my hearing worse I feel my hearing has gotten worse over the years Any advice from someone who has a hearing aid would be greatly appreciated
