Hearing disorders and ear pain
Hearing disorders and earaches are common problems in both children and adults. They can occur suddenly or gradually and are usually caused by inflammation, middle ear ventilation disorders, wax buildup, damage to the auditory system, or other ENT disorders.
At the Vasmedic clinic, we provide comprehensive ENT examinations that allow us to quickly determine the cause of the problem and begin targeted treatment.
The most common hearing and ear problems
Patients most commonly experience:
- ear pain (unilateral or bilateral),
- hearing impairment or sudden hearing loss,
- ear congestion, pressure or crackling in the ear,
- whistling, buzzing or humming in the ears (tinnitus),
- ear discharge,
- itching or burning of the ear canal,
- dizziness associated with ear disease.
These symptoms can significantly affect quality of life, communication, and work performance.
Most common causes
Hearing and ear problems can be caused by:
- inflammation of the outer or middle ear,
- accumulation of earwax,
- Eustachian tube dysfunction (often associated with colds or allergies),
- fluid in the middle ear (common in children),
- noise-induced hearing loss,
- age-related hearing loss,
- inner ear disorders,
- injury or sudden change in pressure.
Early ENT examination is crucial for preserving hearing.
When to see an ENT doctor
Make an appointment for an examination if:
- ear pain lasts longer than 1–2 days,
- your hearing suddenly deteriorates,
- you have discharge from your ear,
- you have persistent ringing or buzzing in your ears,
- your child has repeated ear infections or poor hearing,
- the problems arose after a cold, a flight, or swimming.
