♫Stєρhιє♫ asked:


ok so i have an ear infection and i have lost some hearing in my left ear, like to the point were i cant hear a whisper. Along with this annoying symptom, when it’s really quite i can hear buzzing noises in my ear and head. It almost sounds like a low static sound your tv would make… why is this? please help!

I have to write a paper for a class, really short (500 words).
I was given a case study about a guy….basically stated that he started to experience hearing loss at around age 19 to 20…and he’s about 24 or 25 now .

He has no symptoms besides hearing loss

Anyways, one of the questions i have to address is…..give 2 possible reasons for his hearing loss.

1 reason i thought of was noise induced hearing loss.

Having trouble thinking of a second reason.

I ruled out a buildup of earwax or other ailments, because in 5 years, they would have been spotted and cleared up. Also the case study doesn’t mention previous sicknesses or anything. So i have to assume he didn’t have any sort of ear infection.

I thought of a few hereditary causes…ones that hit in the teens… but they all have symptoms that don’t fit the situation.

Any help would be great
Oh and i’m not saying it is NOT hereditary.

Just i couldn’t find a hereditary disease that fit the situation.

I currently have an ear infection in my left ear and it has been causing me to not be able to hear as well. Will this loss of hearing be permanent? I am currently taking amoxicillin.

Melanie P asked:


Is premature birth one of the causes of hearing loss? I was a premmature baby I have 85% hearing loss in my left ear and my right ear hears 100%. It is also a nerve loss. I had bad ear infections when i was a kid. Could an ear infection cause a nerve loss?
