Question of the Week

Sudden hearing loss: can it wait until Monday?

It should not wait. Sudden hearing loss over hours to a few days is treated as urgent, because early assessment gives the best chance of recovery. Contact an ENT service or urgent care the same day.

One submitted question is featured here every week. Yours could be next week, which is the whole point of asking.
