Ok guys. I am very concerned. I developed a pretty bad head cold middle of last week. I'm used to having my ears clogged with a cold. This is different.
I can't hear any ordinary sounds such as the click that the table lamp makes when you turn it on. I use a headset and can barely hear the caller at max volume. I am like an old person; the tv volume, usually at about 17 is in the 30's.
Last week, after talking to my doc, I used a earwax cleaner. My right ear had been going "blocked" for several weeks. A day or so later, I came down with the head cold.
I have investigated this on Webmd.com. They say that the stuffy, "can't hear" feeling should go away in a few weeks.
Should I accept this, or should I immediately seek medical attention.
It's just never been this bad.
