Author Topic: I'm ''going deaf'' in my right ear... Vertigo, too.  (Read 1805 times)

My mom just tells me it's a cold virus, but I think it could be worse.

Discuss odd occurrences.

Ear infection?

How did this happen?

Have you gone to the doctor? Or does your mom think she knows everything about this so she forbids you?


if your ear is ringing too you might have a large chunk of wax against your eardrum or an ear infection

By the way, your mom is stupid. Cold viruses don't do that.

Stick it in your ear.

Yes they do.

The virus passed along from the throat to the eustachian tube and it's now causing his middle ear to fill with infected liquid.

You're going to develop tinnitus or a really nasty ear infection unless you get it checked out.

If you're wondering how I know this, the middle ear infection is causing the vestibular system in his ear to stop working correctly, which is responsible for his vertigo.

She's waiting a few days to see if it's gonna just pass by. If not, she'll take me to the doctor.

I dunno. I was just browsing the internet when I took of my headset and it felt like I stuck something in my ear.

Possibly a simple build up of wax.

Wait, inside my ear?
I tried a Q-Tip, but there's not much earwax.

i already said that

congratulations you just jammed it in farther

It's possible it got pushed back into the eardrum, causing what seems to be a form of "deafness".
A similar situation happened to me last month, except I had to deal with the deafness for several weeks.
