Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Have you been on medication like Streptomycin, Amikacin as these are toxic to inner ear. Was there any trauma. You need to get a complete evaluation by Audiometry and other tests if required to quantitate and identify type of hearing loss. Depending on the results the appropriate therapy will be advised.
