Loss of hearing in my right ear

2017-05-30 14:01:38
I am experiencing a loss of hearing only in my right ear, this has been the case for a week now. I am just 16 years old and haven't ever experienced this before.This is highly noticeable when I listen to any sort of music on any of my headphones, I do listen to a lot of music but usually, it's on a fairly low volume with breaks.

Don't worry..the block might be due to wax which tends to accumulate if the ear canal remains blocked for long duration (like constant use of ear plugs). Consult an ENT specialist
