How Can severe Cold And Cough Be Treated?

Lately I ve been suffering from cold and cough. Yesterday, when I was training for journalism, I was talking to my trainer and I heard weird sound in my left ear. It s like there s an echo that sounds robotic. Until now, I m still hearing that robotic sound and I m absolutely freaking out. I m so scared. Am I going to be deaf? Why is this happening to me? Is this just because of the cold? Since I didn t have tissue paper, I kept on sniffing.
