Decreased hearing can be because of various reasons such as impacted wax inside your ear canal, eustachian tube dysfunction, chronic otitis media, sensory neural hearing loss etc. Treatment depends on identifying cause for your problem
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
