Left ear sounds better than right ear

2022-11-10 17:18:07
Good evening doctors, Is it normal to have one ear hearing better than the other. I've observed closely today that my hearing is different in both ears. While i snapped fingers close to them, the Left ear has hard and clear hearing but the right ear has lower hearing ability. Is there something wrong with the right one???
