General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

It does seem that you are suffering from hearing loss. Whether it is temporary or permanent can only be confirmed on a direct examination by an ENT.

It has to be seen if it is conductive hearing loss or sensorineural hearing loss. It can be assessed by doing tuning fork test which will be done by an ENT.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nazma Amman
