Right ear loss of hearing low frequency

2018-01-03 19:47:37
About a month ago I woke up with my right ear feeling full or muffled. It felt like I was deaf but yet i could hear with it. It felt like they needed to 'pop' even though when they did it made no difference. This was also accompanied with a low frequency tinnitus such as a few hundred hz. I did see an audiologist who determined I had average hearing and his tests of pressure and visual inspection proved normal. After a few days it seemed to go away but it's back now and I can't hear below 150 hz
