Huh???: So if by saying the word "deaf" you mean that you have absolutely zero hearing out of the affected ear then I suggest you see an emergency room physician now and bypass ENT because you've got much bigger problems than just "deafness." If you mean, however, hearing loss then, I don't see why you wouldn't want to see someone as soon as possible. Like maybe, tomorrow? Just sayin'.
