![]() ![]() ![]() However, you should consider sudden deafness symptoms a medical emergency and visit a doctor immediately. ![]() Sometimes, people with SSHL put off seeing a doctor because they think their hearing loss is due to allergies, a sinus infection, earwax plugging the ear canal, or other common conditions. (For more information, read the NIDCD fact sheet Tinnitus.) People with sudden deafness may also notice one or more of these symptoms: a feeling of ear fullness, dizziness, and/or a ringing in their ears, such as tinnitus. Still others notice a loud, alarming “pop” just before their hearing disappears. Others first notice it when they try to use the deafened ear, such as when they use a phone. People with SSHL often discover the hearing loss upon waking up in the morning. Sudden deafness frequently affects only one ear. SSHL happens because there is something wrong with the sensory organs of the inner ear. Sudden sensorineural (“inner ear”) hearing loss (SSHL), commonly known as sudden deafness, is an unexplained, rapid loss of hearing either all at once or over a few days.
