- Weed, Hidden Hearing Loss
A couple nights ago I wore closed back over ear headphones for about 2 hours until I felt a pop in my left ear. The static that I've been hearing in my head for a while has been a good bit louder since. I feel pressure in my left ear and it seems like I can change the tone by moving my neck and jaw. I'm just hoping that it's not caused by hearing damage.
I want to get to an ENT or audiologist, but I want to make sure that the audio range for the test will be closer to 20kHz instead of only 8kHz. I'd like a speech in noise test too to check for hidden hearing loss.
Does anyone have any advice for finding a place that provides these? I'm trying to not be too nervous but I just have in the back of my head that this could possibly be an emergency but I'm not even sure if I have more hearing loss right now. I'm hoping that it's really been slowly fading over the last couple of days but I can't be too sure.
