What’s wrong with feeling like you’re hearing less in one ear?

The feeling of hearing little sound in one ear may be related to purulent otitis media, cerumen embolism, cholesteatoma of the external auditory canal and other causes.
1. Suppurative otitis media: Inflammatory reaction of the middle ear caused by bacterial infection, which may result in hearing loss, earache, tinnitus, and ear drainage on the affected side.
2. Cerumen embolism: Excessive accumulation of cerumen, which clumps together and blocks the ear canal, may result in a feeling of hearing less in one ear.
3. Cholesteatoma of the external auditory canal: Various causes of squamous epithelial hyperplasia of the external auditory canal lead to the formation of cholesteatoma of the external auditory canal, which can lead to hearing loss.
There may be other reasons why you feel that the sound in one ear is small, so we suggest that you go to the hospital in time, clarify the cause of the disease and carry out standardized treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
