Hearing issues
Our 13 weeks old baby girl is not responding to sound. On 5 February, pediatrician diagnosed viral infection resulting stomach pain, cough & cold in nose and throat. Following the suggestions of pediatrician, OAE test was conducted on 24 February which showed some abnormalities in the left ear. On the same day, BERA was conducted, keeping the baby on natural sleep mode. BERA results were okay. Left ear was indicating the presence of fluid and infection. Please note that since birth she is undergoing cough and cold. Startle reflex is okay.
1) Why she isn't responding via right ear?
2) What is to be done about the ear infection?
4) What should we do about the hearing issues?
