Could Slight Hearing Loss And Pressure In Head Suggest Inner Ear Crystals?
I went to see an ent already he said my ears were too clean and to stop using qtips which i did. Had a hearing test done and i have slight hearing loss in both ears. I am 46 years old. When my head is turned a certain way i feel pressure and feel like i am going to pass out. I am going to ask about a second opinion because i feel that there is something else going on. Could i have crystals on the ear drums and would a ct scan help

HI
Well come to HCM
Such symptoms could be due to cleaning the inner ear with some buds, because this could cause local irritation of nerve system and eventually causes vertigo and dizziness, so stop this and wait for some time this would be fine soon, if this does not improved then you can try "Betahistine tab" three times in day, take care, have a nice day.
