Patient's question:
Left ear was unable to hear since childhood due to illness, and now the right ear also has significant hearing loss.Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is likely that the hearing loss is caused by allergic rhinitis. The main factor or cause is that the rhinitis leads to the blockage of the eustachian tube (the tube connecting the nose and ears), resulting in a feeling of stuffiness in the ear and the phenomenon of tinnitus (ringing in the ears). The possibility of nasal cancer is unlikely.Recommendation: It is recommended that you visit a hospital for examination to determine how long the condition has been present. Based on the condition, a treatment plan can be decided. Additionally, if you are undergoing treatment, it is important to address issues such as curved or swollen posterior nasal turbinates, which may be causing the hearing loss. If the hearing loss persists for a long time, even if the rhinitis is cured, the hearing may not recover. This is something you must take seriously.
Wishing you a speedy recovery!
