Gone Deaf in my right ear

[user123]

Wow... that must have been a bit strange and scary, not what you expect while watching rugby! Anyhow, good luck with it all, let us know how you get on and if they have any tips how to avoid that sort of thing...my dad was deaf on one side, too, all of a sudden, don't know what happened there...

thank you all for the replys i will keep you posted how i get on.

while i was at the hospital and talking to the doctor she said that the biggest cause for ear damage and infection though not necessarily deafness
are those q tip's that we all use and she wishes that they would stop selling them. 9/10 times the plastic tube part will scrape across the lining of your ear while you are using it but the ear itself is so delicate inside that it cause damage without us knowing it. As to my hearing, she did say that the damage may have been done years ago and has just got worse up until it suddenly stopped working.

sadly there is no way of knowing that you may have damaged the ear if there is no pain unless you have regular checks done on your ears.....but in all honesty who amongst us has their ears checked unless we have a problem, it is certainly not something i thought about before.

going to go on the internet and see if Armani or lacoste have started doing designer hearing aids lol

I used to be told the smallest thing you should be sticking in your ear is your elbow and thats never going to fit...

Not nice loosing the hearing even if only in one ear, for 16 years I wore ear defenders etc with very large timber moulding machines absolutely roaring at me!
My wife says I shout on the phone, mine could and most likely is damaged.
Now my ears are getting itchy reading this! Oops
