Ticky tack clicky clack

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

ear infections?

ear drums can kinda patch themselves up, at least. if it's your actual hearing that's been damaged, i feel for you, anon.

yeah apparently the pressure ruptured them

we're gonna see if they heal up by themselves in a bit, but if they don't, it's off to the specialist with me

i've always been HoH, though, so I really hope this dip in my hearing isn't permanent i can't hear for shit

fwiw, hearing aids are really great these days? my grandpa had his hearing absolutely fucked in 'nam and as long as his hearing aid is on, he can hear and talk normally if kind of loud

otherwise you can do like he does when his hearing aid is off and YELL EVERYTHING

If you can afford it I wouldn't put off being seen by an ENT or at least going to a clinic for some antibiotics to clear up the infection. My eardrum ruptured once and it took like...3 weeks or so to be able to hear normally again, and the fluid buildup never really drained from the ear so I had infections again and again after that until I went to an ENT who suctioned it out and put a tube in. Now I don't have any more problems but I probably should have just gone to an ENT in the first place.

Just adding, the hearing loss will not be permanent. It'll take some time to come back but your eardrums should heal up fine as long as the infection clears up.
