Less hearing through right ear

2017-06-30 18:35:55
Whenever i use my headphones and earphones i seem to hear less sound through my right ear and all the sound comes focused on the left ear. This started happening after i cleaned only my left ear with earbuds and water and didnt clean right ear and now tried different headsets but the music through right is lower than the left ear
