Possible Hearing Loss?

I did a hearing test on YouTube but I could only hear between 10- 12000 hz. Almost everyone in the comments section could hear around 17000 hz. So the question is: Could this be a possible hearing loss? I'm really concerned about it.

 

There are a lot of factors at play here. First the quality of the youtube video you watched, then your headphones. The volume you play the video at is also important. I suspect most of the people who report hearing 18 khz + are teenagers and probably playing the video way too freaking loud.

 

Personaly, I use this site http://onlinetonegenerator.com/hearingtest.html
with volume (windows 7) way down at zero using Sennheizer headphones. I reach up to about 13.500 depending on Tinnitus day variation.

 

Thanks! I'll try it when I have time

 

ENT and hearing test! The only way to be sure.

online hearing tests can’t be trusted.

 

All above comments are very true. We run the risk of using computers to turn ourselves into hyperchondriacs if not careful. See an ENT. They know what they're doing and can tell you for sure. Plus if you do they can help with positive things you can do about it.
