Acute hearing loss needs to be evaluated in detail. It may be sudden sensorineural hearing loss which needs urgent treatment. You should consult a specialist for ear examination and if necessary audiological evaluation may be required
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
