Sudden Deafness
A Medical Emergency
––
Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss 
If you've suddenly experienced a dramatic hearing loss there is hope. Treatment with corticosteroids have been shown to be the most effective at treating SSHL. These may be recommended to be taken orally or injected by the physician into the ear. The sooner it is treated once detected, the greater chance of recovery.
​For this reason, a sudden sensorineural hearing loss is considered a medical emergency,
​and treatment should occur by an otolaryngologist, otologist or at an Emergency Room as soon as possible.
