Lissa asked:


I’m writing a book in which a character needs to have instant, complete hearing loss which does not go away on its own, but remains until treated.

Preferably caused by trauma or infection, but it needs to to happen very quickly and be reversible.

Anyone have any ideas?

I’ve heard dispute as to whether the bass frequencies are too low to cause hearing loss. Does anyone have any facts to back up whether it is bad for the ears or not?

I’m interested in becoming an air traffic controller however I was reading the medical requirements and it said that I would have to have a hearing loss of no greater than 25 dbs in a variety of frequencies. I’m functionally deaf in my left ear but my right ear is fine and no one can tell without me telling them. Not sure if appeals for this kind of hearing loss is considered.

I have had a fairly steady hearing loss that seems to have accelerated in the last year or so. I do not have health insurance at this time, but I need to get this corrected. It is affecting everyday life as well as my classwork. I need to find a cost effective way to correct this any suggestions?

I am 32, have suffered from chronic inner ear infections all of my life (reason for hearing problem). I am a full time student, which is the reason I do not have insurance. Oh, and because of the ear infections I have had both ear drums rupture more than once. It only hurt the first time.
