My left ear is gradually becoming less sensitive to sound. What might be causing this?

Asked by Female, 42 · 2 days ago

A gradual decrease in hearing in one ear may be caused by earwax buildup, middle ear fluid, age-related hearing loss, or damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve. Infections or exposure to loud noise may also contribute. It is important to see an ENT doctor for a proper examination and hearing test to determine the exact cause and receive appropriate treatment.
