Question:
What can I do about Sudden Hearing Loss?
Answers:
Sudden hearing loss, often referred to as sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL), is a rapid loss of hearing that occurs typically in one ear, within a 72-hour period. This condition is considered a medical emergency and usually affects people without any prior warning signs.
Causes
The exact cause of sudden hearing loss is often unknown, but potential causes include:
Viral infections (such as those affecting the inner ear or auditory nerve)
Circulation problems (issues that reduce blood flow to the ear)
Head trauma
Autoimmune diseases (where the body’s immune system attacks the inner ear)
Medications (such as certain antibiotics or chemotherapy drugs)
Tumors (like acoustic neuroma, which affects the auditory nerve)
Underlying conditions (like diabetes or high blood pressure)
Exposure to loud noise
As the V3 works with exact disorders or disease conditions, one must determine from the list above the most likely cause of the condition, then find the frequency for the exact cause from ETDFL.
As such SHL is a symptom of a condition.
