Hi,

Thank you for your query.

I do not visualize any problem. Nevertheless it is advisable that you get an audiogram done and consult an ENT specialist. Injury to the nerves from the ear may be one of the reason.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction. Please revert back in case you need any clarifications or would like to share more facts.

Wishing you all the best.
