Am i deaf, pleas help!?!?

Question

i took a shower the other day and i cleaned my ears with a q-tip, then after a few minuites i couldnt hear in my left ear!

my left ear has been like this for 3 days and im getting frustrated and upset trying to pop it. everytime someone would talk to me i had to stick a finger in my ear and i could hear but after it would go back..

now the worst thing is, is that everytime i touch my ear, move my jaw, or even chew my left ear hurts!

so can anyone please help me!! what should i do, i've cleaned my ears plenty of times and im sure this is not swimmers ear.. so pleas give me good advice?!!

Answer 1

you probably hurt your ear or damaged it when you cleaned it with the q-tip. it might be infected. go to the doctors.

Answer 2

you should probably see your doctor you might have done damage to you ear drum,

         good luck

Answer 3

I cannot stress this enough... NEVER put anything into your ear canal. Q Tips are meant for cleaning the outer ear, not the inner.

You need to see your doctor as soon as possible. Don't ignore what is going on.

Answer 4

you damaged your ear drum....

Answer 5

Go to the doctors, you probably have a ear infection even though you cleaned your ears out.

i hope this helps! Go to the doctors quick before, you actually loose your hearing.

Answer 6

Something like that happened to me once. Just wait one week and if it still goes on i would recommened going to the doctor.
