A member asked:
What should i do i had a ringing in my ear when i went to bed and woke up with some hearing lose today? is it something to worry about?

Yes!: Be seen asap by an ent. This could be sudden hearing loss, which requires steroid treatment. If that's what you have the best treatment occurs when it is started within 7 days of the hearing loss. When you call the ENT office let them know that's what you are concerned about and they should usually get you in to be seen.

See ENT ASAP: While most causes for your symptoms are generally self-limited, there is a possible diagnosis of sudden hearing loss that would be best managed with prompt evaluation and treatment by your local ent.
