Hi everyone,

I have sudden hearing loss in my right ear. I am very panicked. What should I do?

Thank you.

Go to a hospital.

Sudden hearing loss is an emergency. Go to the place that will get you to see an ENT doc as soon as possible. The general treatment is steroids (either oral or intratympanic), which is likely what they will offer you after confirming the diagnosis with a hearing test.

Good luck!
