Have you seen a professional to evaluate your hearing? There are devices that can help when you have hearing loss in one ear. They are called CROS and BICROS.
I hear you i’ve had hearing loss in one ear for my whole life and I mumble whenever talking and no one cam understand me and so times vice versa basically everyone thinks i’m dumb but I just cant hear as well or speak as well.
If you sleep on your side at night try to `balance out` sleeping one side and the other - turn on the left and turn on the right during your 8 hours. This allows your ear, on both sides, to drain properly. Difficult I know to cut down time on your favourite position but It may help. Sorry, if you sleep on your back I have no helpful comment.
@@tiredniko same here lost my hearing on my right side in 2015 …. Funny thing is I can still here the “peep” in the sound test but can’t hear when someone whispered
Losing just about all hearing in right ear. Went to hearing test then to ENT Dr. He took mri. Went back ask him why am I loosing my hearing..this Dr. Says, No tumor, shrugs his shoulders and says, I don’t know why. Walks away! He gave no more interest into why... I think I deserve some kind of professional explanation that is more satisfactory than that...
We would recommend to find an audiologist near you that you feel comfortable with. Losing your hearing can be very challenging and you need someone who can be your advocate and understanding with your needs.

What if you have mild hearing loss in your left ear but still hear pretty good out of it? My left ear dropped to 35db at 250 frequency and 30db at 500 frequency where my right ear was 20 and 10. All in all my ears were basically equal until the last 2 lowest frequencies and that’s where it dropped some. But I can still pick up sound and bass from songs, talk on the phone fine out of that ear, I mean I can hear background noise good and what direction it’s coming from etc. like I can hear pretty good out of it, only thing I’ve been experiencing is this pressure and fullness sensation and low pitched ringing sensation, or ringing from the pressure I don’t know how to explain it. It’s not high pitched ringing and it does ease up at night it seems like. I’ve also noticed sensitivity to some sounds like scratching the wall I can feel it in my ear, closing lids hard I can feel it, sometimes my voice or other peoples voice I can somewhat feel it in my ear as well, but not all the time though? Like right now I can do all those things and not feel it, but when my ear almost feels somewhat normal I do feel it… it was worse at one point, but has improved atleast gradually. The humming test I have a hard time distinguishing which ear is better, most of the time it feels equal and other times maybe slightly louder in my bad ear? My symptoms at one point were pretty intense with the pressure and sound coming from my ear, that’s really the only time I notice a little difference in my hearing? When it eases up it almost feels normal. But it seems like for a week now my symptoms have gradually improved? Not 100% but better than it was gradually. I’ve been getting treated for middle ear fluid for about a month and half now, and been dealing with these symptoms on and off for 2 months exactly. I haven’t had vertigo or any other serious symptoms, just the pressure and fullness and low pitched ringing. I got sick with a bad head cold and congestion, stopped up, sinus headaches etc and lasted for like 10 days ATLEAST and somewhere between the 7th and 14th of November I woke up and noticed my left ear just felt like, full? Pressure? And that sound (low pitched ringing or whatever) thought maybe I just slept too long on that side and all that mucus and congestion went to my ear, and I just kinda shook it off because I’ve dealt with this similar experience in my right ear years ago and it got better over time so I didn’t really think anything of it, well November 28th was my first visit at this clinic and that’s when I started getting treated for middle ear fluid and slight mild infection idk. Never would have thought of hearing loss, never would have crossed my mind. I don’t do anything to super loud excessive to cause damage, I don’t have any diseases. But maybe it was whatever virus attacked my sinuses I have no idea. Maybe my body is just taking longer to heal and get over this. Just curious if anybody out there has dealt with similar symptoms that I’m dealing with and if they think my situation will get worse or these sensations in my ear will last forever??? It’s been 2 months now and my symptoms haven’t gotten worse, I mean for a while it seemed like it was on a routine, where it would ease up at night and then flare up bad when I wake up and midday. They did air and bone conduction hearing tests and the tympanometry test as well. If anything like I said maybe some slight gradual improvement. But it comes and goes? Ease up and come back I don’t understand, I’m 2 months in like I said. I’ve done a lot of hearing tests online that we’re favorable, I just don’t one about an hour ago that said I didn’t have mild hearing loss.
Thanks for sharing. It sounds like you are dealing with fluctuating hearing loss in the left ear most likely due to the middle ear fluid. I recommend you continue to have it monitored by your physician. Online hearing tests vary and depend greatly on the quality of the headphones you are using. A proper evaluation by an audiologist would be preferred.
@@AscentAudMcLean thank you for replying back. Actually the mild low frequency hearing loss I shared in my comment was from an audiologist doctors office. I just do the online tests at home to kinda monitor it and make sure it doesn’t get worse I know they aren’t 100%. But I see my ENT tomorrow, was just curious if I’ve waited too long to get or save my hearing? I’m not saying there wasn’t fluid in there at one point but I know on Jan.13th tympanogram showed nothing conductive but was more less wanting to get an opinion on my mild audiometric hearing loss and my chances of saving my hearing? Been experiencing symptoms for about 2 months now fluctuating, easing up at times and flaring up at times. No vertigo.
I've been experiencing the exact same thing. Mine started November 2022 and apparently is here to stay. My ENT could not find anything wrong with me. It's frustrating but like you shared it eases up. It's worse in the mornings or when i have bad allergies. I have experienced a little vertigo but it quickly goes away. I'm also 41 and maybe it's just the luck of the draw with age?
I was recently affected with SSHL on left ear >90db profound loss. My right ear is perfectly normal. ENT said the reason is unknown and condition is idiopathic. I already have autoimmune hashimotos. Please tell whether there is any possibility of my right ear being affected too? How to protect my right side hearing?
I'm sorry to hear you suffered from SSHL, that must have been so scary. There is no way to know when someone will experience SSHL. In order to protect the hearing in your right ear be sure to minimize exposure to loud noises, wear hearing protection if needed and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
It's Saturday 9th October today, thursday 7th October late evening, no ain't, no warning, my right ear went deaf. I have a full feeling in the ear, as if it's full of cotton wool. Eardrops not helping. I suffer from migraines. Ear does not hurt. Advice?
@@usafan241 hi John, I went to my MD who is also a phsyciatrist. I suffer from major depression and severe anxiety and somehow this triggers my migraines. My blood pressure was extremely high. I've been taking the Bio-Antenolol as she prescribed and my migraine significantly improved and I have about 80% of my hearing back. The human body is amazing. I can't believe that a person's mental state can affect a person's physical well-being so much. I must admit, I couldn't focus or hear the majority of the explanation she gave, so I might be slightly off. I'm just glad I can hear, anxiety is awful and not hearing just added to my fear. Thank you for asking John 💛
@@shanimarais9695 That's great, Shani! I woke up with a clogged ear on 9/21/2021. This happened to me before on 7/9/2019. Was a very stressful time in my life and woke up one day and it happened. Never saw a doctor as I was only 22 at the time. Used eardrops and avoided headphones and it healed itself. However, this time around I was stressed from vacation ( i hate flying and have a strong fear of it) and have been around second hand smoking for a year or so now. I went to an ENT who said I had low frequency hearing loss but only in two frequencies (250 and 500 of 25db) after steroids and intratympanic injection my hearing returned to normal but my ear still feels off and I have tinnitus. Do you still have that full feeling in your ear? Any other symptoms? It's been 1 month and a couple of weeks and I still have slight pressure and high pitched tinnitus. Hearing does not fluctuate as it is stable.
Hi, amazing video - I randomly lost my hearing on the right side one night a couple years ago, I’ve tried everything, seen top doctors - MRI’s (nothing there) , the double sided hearing aids even acupuncture & electro acupuncture, also devices like eustaci it’s like a pressure device to burst the sensation inside my ear ,but nothing retuned the hearing. I don’t know what else to do neither do the doctors here 🇬🇧 maybe u guys might be able to help for another solution to rerun the hearing ??
It sounds like you have done everything possible to get your hearing back. Unfortunately, not knowing your case it's hard to make a recommendation. Best of luck to you!
Confirmed several months ago that I have unilateral hearing loss and after additional tests (MRI that showed another unrelated issue), this week I ordered my aids. This loss happened at a time that I won't mind wearing a hearing aid. I am surprised at my age late 50s but life happens.
Hello. Before you all panic, don't overlook the obvious... I woke up one morning with an almost total loss in one ear. I closed off the other ear, and couldn't even hear my footsteps as I walked. I paniced and went to the doctor. She said I had wax buildup, and gave me baking soda drops. A week later, still no hearing in one ear. I had my ears blasted out by a nurse using hot water. After it, she said my ears were clean and could I hear her? I said "sure can". It was wax build up!
Menieres is a bucket of similar symptoms. Your unilateral hearing loss is a symptom along with fullness and episodes of rotational vertigo. The cause can be systemic which gets treated with various medicines and/or changes to diet. The cause can also be a structural misalignment in the upper cervicle area. The cure for this involves working with a Blair upper cervicle trained chiropractor. Won’t restore lost hearing but can get rid of the spins.
Iv looked everywhere for a hearing Los that lasts only second and switching to the right that keeps happening.also drilling loud noise right through the brain waking you up at nighy
I'd recommend making an appointment with an ENT: ear, nose, and throat doctor about your concerns. They will complete a thorough check and test your hearing as well.
I cannot hear through my left ear...I m so tensed I m thinking that lets end my life...who will love me even I cannot love someone I don't want to give pressure to my parents and loved ones... Please say can I able to hear from one ear for lifetime?????? Say this
Please visit an audiologist or Ear, Nose & Throat physician to have your hearing checked. It may be something as simple as a blockage of earwax that can be easily removed. If it's something more, they will be able to help you.
My age is only 17 nd I am a girl...it will not be easy to live my life so easily...please pray for me that ear problem that well soon nd may it is a small problem that's easily get well nd I can hear properly with both ears plz pray I need ur prayers🙏
Lost my hearing in right ear about 2 years ago. Had all the treatment right away. I didn't regain any hearing. I tedted for covid immediately, and was negative. Any ideas?
It could have been so many things. Often sudden hearing loss is due to a virus in the inner ear. You did everything you could, I'm sorry to hear you didn't regain any hearing in that ear. Hope you are doing ok.
Thanks for the reply. I definitely did lab work the next 1:14 day, including COVID test. Everything came back negative. I did a lyme disease test and that was negative. It baffles me why I am profoundly deaf in right ear
So i had ear loss in my left ear. I realised it very late. I went to see dr he said to have a machine but iam embarrassed to have one Is that ok not having a machine will it effect my other ear ? I have no pain in my ears but its really hard to listen in loud places
Can the cranial nerves be the problem? Why does my neurologist ignore this issue? Before my sudden hearing loss I was having pulsatile tinnitus. Can the cranial nerves be the cause?
The VIII Cranial nerve is the Vestibulocochlear nerve and is responsible for balance and hearing. Often a benign tumor is found on that nerve, and it's called an acoustic neuroma. By completing an MRI, your physicians are evaluating this cranial nerve.
I lost hearing in my left ear 3 months ago it started randomly and it has also been ringing since then we have gone to the the ENT and Audiologist they tried a heavy dose of prednisone that did not work is there any other cause you know of
I'm sure your ENT and Audiologist are treating you with the best care. Unfortunately, sudden hearing loss can be permanent, and the cause is not always known.
Hello, I am 20 years old. I never used a head phone, but I started lately to use one. And I realized that I hear better in one ear that the other, so I went to a doctor. He said I had to undergo the auditory nerve drawing. So my question is: " Is this Hearing Loss in one ear permanent ? "
That's hard to say. Once you complete a hearing test, they will be able to tell you what type of loss you have. There are some situations where a hearing loss in one ear is temporary, others of course are permanent. Keep us posted!
@@AscentAudMcLean Hello, I did the test and the result was i have an ear stronger than the other one, but doctor didn't mention any treatment. Is that mean it's permanent?
We recommend you have a professional hearing test. This will tell you where the problem is occurring and how bad it is. They will also suggest options to help you.
Hey please reply Sir. I can't hear with my right ear since birth. At first I don't realise about it,but as I grew up I started to notice it,but I just ignored it. But now as a teenager I feel so embarassed among people,I can't distinguished who is talking,I only hear with my left ear. I went to doctor and go through a hearing test.,I found out that I have no hearing nerve in my right ear. 😭 It's so depressing, I'm just 18 and I can't hear properly. Is there any solution for it.. 😭 Please reply. Should I go through a surgery or any device will work. 😭
Please know you can live a very normal and healthy life with hearing in only one ear. It is challenging for you now probably because teens hang out in large groups and talk over one another. Your doctor should be able to advise you on what treatment is best based on your hearing evaluation. Not knowing your history or test results makes it hard to say what direction to take. A CROS aid is a possibility.
My GF got a ring with jingle bells on it today, I just discovered I can't hear them in my left ear but I can hear them in my right ear. I can also hear plenty of other sounds in my left but slightly muffled.
@@AscentAudMcLean I have something similar. If I wear heavy duty earmuffs on my left ear, I can hear 4.4 kHz almost as easily as my right ear unprotected which probably means 50 dB hearing loss! The problem is that 4.4 kHz isn't a standard test tone and the calculations showed that my hearing was normal. I think treating the hearing loss would improve speech understanding in noise. The test measured only 25 dB at 4 kHz.
The following video on Sudden Hearing Loss by the American Hearing Research Foundaiton aired in 2023 on national public television: ruclips.net/video/K5Iuhtkcq6w/видео.html

It could have been so many things. Often sudden hearing loss is due to a virus in the inner ear. You did everything you could, I'm sorry to hear you didn't regain any hearing in that ear. Hope you are doing ok.
Thanks for the reply. I definitely did lab work the next 1:14 day, including COVID test. Everything came back negative. I did a lyme disease test and that was negative. It baffles me why I am profoundly deaf in right ear
So i had ear loss in my left ear. I realised it very late. I went to see dr he said to have a machine but iam embarrassed to have one
Is that ok not having a machine will it effect my other ear ?
I have no pain in my ears but its really hard to listen in loud places
Many hearing aids can be very discreet, and it is in your best interest to follow your doctor's advice and treat your hearing loss.
Can the cranial nerves be the problem? Why does my neurologist ignore this issue? Before my sudden hearing loss I was having pulsatile tinnitus. Can the cranial nerves be the cause?
Have you had an MRI? I have an acoustic neuroma, and those are the symptoms.
Yes. MRI and MRA Many times. Nothing found.
The VIII Cranial nerve is the Vestibulocochlear nerve and is responsible for balance and hearing. Often a benign tumor is found on that nerve, and it's called an acoustic neuroma. By completing an MRI, your physicians are evaluating this cranial nerve.
I lost hearing in my left ear 3 months ago it started randomly and it has also been ringing since then we have gone to the the ENT and Audiologist they tried a heavy dose of prednisone that did not work is there any other cause you know of
I'm sure your ENT and Audiologist are treating you with the best care. Unfortunately, sudden hearing loss can be permanent, and the cause is not always known.
Hello,
I am 20 years old. I never used a head phone, but I started lately to use one. And I realized that I hear better in one ear that the other, so I went to a doctor. He said I had to undergo the auditory nerve drawing. So my question is: " Is this Hearing Loss in one ear permanent ? "
That's hard to say. Once you complete a hearing test, they will be able to tell you what type of loss you have. There are some situations where a hearing loss in one ear is temporary, others of course are permanent. Keep us posted!
@@AscentAudMcLean Hello,
I did the test and the result was i have an ear stronger than the other one, but doctor didn't mention any treatment.
Is that mean it's permanent?
just used one headphone in my right ear for too long and i started to hear low in my right ear😭😭
Me too pls help doc
We recommend you have a professional hearing test. This will tell you where the problem is occurring and how bad it is. They will also suggest options to help you.
i lost both hearing both my ear since birth have hearing aid so can hear again
Hey please reply Sir.
I can't hear with my right ear since birth. At first I don't realise about it,but as I grew up I started to notice it,but I just ignored it. But now as a teenager I feel so embarassed among people,I can't distinguished who is talking,I only hear with my left ear. I went to doctor and go through a hearing test.,I found out that I have no hearing nerve in my right ear. 😭 It's so depressing, I'm just 18 and I can't hear properly. Is there any solution for it.. 😭
Please reply. Should I go through a surgery or any device will work. 😭
Please know you can live a very normal and healthy life with hearing in only one ear. It is challenging for you now probably because teens hang out in large groups and talk over one another. Your doctor should be able to advise you on what treatment is best based on your hearing evaluation. Not knowing your history or test results makes it hard to say what direction to take. A CROS aid is a possibility.
@@AscentAudMcLean thank you a ton for reply
Same situation bro just that I am deaf in my left ear.. its gets embarrassing when you r among ur peers and can't make out what they r saying 💔
My GF got a ring with jingle bells on it today, I just discovered I can't hear them in my left ear but I can hear them in my right ear. I can also hear plenty of other sounds in my left but slightly muffled.
We recommend you see an audiologist for a hearing test to see what's going on.
@@AscentAudMcLean I have something similar. If I wear heavy duty earmuffs on my left ear, I can hear 4.4 kHz almost as easily as my right ear unprotected which probably means 50 dB hearing loss!
The problem is that 4.4 kHz isn't a standard test tone and the calculations showed that my hearing was normal. I think treating the hearing loss would improve speech understanding in noise. The test measured only 25 dB at 4 kHz.

Thank you for sharing
bruh i lost my hearing in one ear at 10 how TF
I'm 16 and it had been like this for me since birth, it's hard to live with one ear working, but manageable :)
@@rawat7923 same :)
@@itdawoowoo11 same kind, better understanding 🌚
@@rawat7923 kinda feel that way as well, i have severe right hearing since either 2 years or 2 months old, and been living with it for 17 years, and tbh i dont use hearing i know they're supposed to help me but i found them to be restricting me to alot of things, so i just live with it and its hasnt really been of a problem
@@theraginghouse yeah you're right. But tbh it depends on the environment you live in not everyone in my school is supportive about it and I really don't blame them but its still hard sometimes. Overall I somehow manage it like I always had done.
we need a cure!
We sure agree!
