Thread: Problems With My Ears

For the past few weeks my ears have been hurting pretty bad. Its mostly my left, but now my right one has been giving me problems too. It started out as feeling like an ear infection, but not a full infection. You know how you have the 'pre-sore throat feeling'? It was like that but in my ear. I've had a fair share of ear infections when I was younger, so I know that feeling right before an ear infection. I would also have that high pitch ringing in my ears. And lately I've been having short sessions of some hearing loss. Its not complete loss, like deafness, but its like someone turned the volume of the world down to halfway. I will regain hearing after a lil while. Now both of my ears are hurting, and I'm under water. Its normally about 2-3 weeks before I can get in to see my regular doctor. I'm not sure if I should schedule an appt and wait that long. I'm hoping somebody on here knows anything about this. I'm a stay-at-home mother, so I dont work around loud noises.. The worst is just in-ear headphones. I dont recall any veritgo, at least not much more than I normally have. Id be happy to answer anyones questions for more info if they need it to help me figure out whats up with my ears. Thanks
