I got an earache like a week ago?!


Question: I got an earache like a week ago?
and ever since then I can't hear very well. Like the earache is gone but now I can't hear. Most of my hearing is gone. What went wrong and what do I need to do to cure this?

Answers:

An earache is typically caused by fluid build up behind the ear drum. This can rupture the ear drum, which will severely impaire hearing, or the fluid build up can dampen vibrations of the ear drum. This will also severely reduce hearing ability. Either way, it should be checked by a doctor before the hearing loss becomes permanent.
