What Causes Worsening Of Hearing In One Ear?

I have noticed over the last week that the hearing in my left ear is getting worse. I feel like everything sounds like a robot when I hear them. when I talk, when people are talking to me, listening to music. when I am talking on the phone I cannot hear clear enough out of my ear to understand what they are saying. Is this serious?
