What Causes Hearing Loss In Left Ear?

Hey there, I've suddenly developed something wrong with my ear. It's been a problem for the past 2/3 days now and I'm a bit concerned. It started off that my ear felt clogged up slightly and then started to feel numb around the outside and as it's developed more I've stated to lose hearing slightly in my left ear, I'm not sure how or why this has happened, but I've found that cold weather seems to be making my ability to hear properly a lot worse, any chance you can help me please?

Please dont ignore this and meet your ent doctor for further examination and treatment for the same.
