Cause of Tinnitus
sudden hearing loss
A week ago I got sudden hearing loss. Doctor after the tests prescribed me prednisolone but no change till now and tinnitus is getting worse :(
 
Unfortunately prednisone is your only option.
Make sure you take as prescribed, usually 60 mg and decrease over 3 weeks. You may also consider intratympanic steroid injections.
How bad is your hearing loss?
Do you have tinnitus and or vertigo ?
How old are you ?

This is the in Germany advised prednisolone plan, start with 250mg end with 5 over 19 days .. it is quite a lot but people say it works sometimes ...

What was your cause of the hearing loss? Any idea?

Hi @nixa. Welcome to the forum! I hope we can help you.
How much hearing have you lost? Is the loss in one or both ears?
