Are you experiencing any vertigo?  This could be due to an inner ear problem.  Are you experiencing any other symptoms?\nHowever I would go for a check-up, it's difficult to diagnose your symptoms without proper testing.

Go to an ear/nose/throat specialist and have him or her test your inner ear and eardrum to see if it's infected or if there may be some other complications.

Since your ears are separated from each other by a fixed distance, one ear generally receives the signal before the other one does.  Depending upon the differential between the two, your brain computes the angle from which the sound originates.  If both hear it at the same moment, it is coming from directly ahead or behind.

ear injuries can cause dizziness and can also cause you to feel disoriented.\n\nyou should seek medical attention asap b/c there is a slight chance you might have a low grade concussion.\n\nthe fact that you are overwhelmingly dizzy and feel confused and disoriented upon standing indicates a serious problem and significant injury to your ear.\n\nin severe cases, if left untreated or looked into-this could cause permanent hearing loss, especially if you've ruptured your eardrum.\n\nhave someone take you to the nearest emergency room or urgent care center. you can also call your family dr to see if you can be seen there.

Not sure what you're asking, but, barring injury to one of your ears or to the auditory centers of the brain, the two ears contribute the same thing.\n\nTwo ears helps us determine the direction a sound is coming from.  The brain is acutally able to tell that a sound reaches one ear slightly before the other.

Sounds like it might be a perilymphatic fistula; which is a rupture of the tissues of the inner ear, and the symptoms are similar to Meniere's.   I also recommend a Neurotologist as your next consultation.

You need to see a doctor. If you leave an ear infection untreated the eardrum could rupture. This is very painful, and the scarring will contribute to hearing loss. You could have a sinus infection or allergies as well.

Go to the doctor.  It could be an infection and with tubes that can cause deafness.  Hope you feel better soon.

An infection of the inner ear, in a single ear as distinct from both at the same time, can be a very frightening experience.  Because it contains the balance fluid, you are inclined to fall around in circles especially when you get out of bed.  When I had it the first time, I honestly thought I was having a stroke or something similar.  However, a few tablets from the doctor cured it within a couple of days.

it means they are going to slap you in the ears from both sides at the same time.  This can make you go deaf as the air that is in your ear canal gets forced into your eardrum causing it to rupture.  This move is NOT RECOMMENDED.

i perforated both my eardrums as a child and although the perforations healed,( but it does leave scar tissue ) i do still have a slight loss of hearing in both ears, if your son is not already in the care of an E.N.T. doctor, then i would advise that you get him referred to one as soon as possible, they will then do an audiogram which is a hearing test to determine what if any damage there is to his hearing, they will also do follow up checks at later dates to monitor the progress of his hearing.\ngood luck, and i hope all goes well for him.

Taken from Anderson, Brett, The treble and the damage done…\nVol. 20, Twin Cities Reader, 01-11-1995, pp 15. Sometimes my ears ring dull and low. I hear something that sounds like a cross between the hum of a Hammond organ and the purr of a well-tuned luxury car. Other times the noise is a faint, high squeal that alternately surges and recedes like surf. Most often, my head hisses like the inside of seashell, causing a cool sensation that feels like my ears are leaking gas. As unpredictable as the nature of my own private echoes might be, it’s certain that I will awake from a night spent sucking down loud rock music with a hangover that has nothing to do with booze.\n\nI’m not alone.\n\n“What happens is the hair cells are damaged, but they’re not dead,” Dr. Sam Levine (an otolarynologist) explains. “As they’re damaged, you lose some of your hearing. Most of the time, if you get out of the environment, your hair cells will recover somewhat. Each day, it [your hearing] comes back, but not as good as it did the day before. Eventually, over a long period of time, hair cells are permanently damaged instead of temporarily damaged.”\n\nMost people would rather believe that hearing loss is like car accidents, violent crime and tax audits - something that affects other people. There are some famous cases. Who guitarist

Two ears.... acoustics. A blind or just blind-folded person can still sense depth and range from the sounds his two ears pick up. Try it, it's fun.
