Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya · Answer

HELLO ATUL,
SUDDEN HEARING LOSS IN ONE EAR- ESPECIALLY IF IT HAPPENS OVERNIGHT AND DOES NOT RESOLVE- IS A SERIOUS CONDITION CALLED SUDDEN SENORINEURAL HEARING LOSS. SINCE THIS HAS PERSISTED FOR 5-6 MONTHS AND TREATMENT HAS NOT HELPED, THE CASE CAN LIKELY BE CHRONIC.

A FULL EVALUATION BY AN ENT SPECIALIST AND AUDIOLOGIST IS ESSENTIAL

MODERN MEDICAL POSSIBILITIES-
-VIRAL INFECTION- OF AUDITORY NERVE(MOST COMMON)
-VASCULAR EVENT- SUDDEN LOSS OF BLOOD SUPPLY TO INNER EAR
-AUTOIMMUNE INNER EAR DISEASE
-ACOUSTIC NEUROMA(NON CANCEROUS TUMOR ON HEARING NERVE)
-EAR TRAUMA, MENIERE'S DISEASE OR DRUG-INDUCED CAUSES

IF UNTREATED IN FIRST FEW WEEKS , RECOVERY BECOMES DIFFICULT, BUT FEW SUPPORTIVE CARE MAY STILL HELP

FROM AN AYURVEDIC VIEW, SUDDEN HEARING LOSS OFTEN RELATES TO VATA VITIATION IN HEAD REGION- SPECIFICALLY PRANA VATA AND UDANA VATA GETTING DISTURBED VLOCKING CHANNELS SUPPLYING THE EAR

SUGGESTED SUPPORTIVE TREATMENT IN YOUR CASE-
1)ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA+BRHAMI CHURNA- 1 TSP EACH WITH WARM MILK AT BED TIME- NOURISHES NERVES, BALANCES VATA
2)SARASWATARISTA- 15 ML WITH WATER TWICE DAILY AFTER MEALS- NERVE REJUVENATION.
3) VRIHAT VATACHINTAMANI RASA- 1 TAB ONCE DAILY WITH GHEE- POTENT FOR NERVE REPAIR(CLASSICAL REJUVINATOR)
4)KSHEERBALA 101(AVARTI)- 1 CAPSULE - TWICE DAILY WITH WARM MIL-INNER EAR AND NERVE TONIC
5)SHANKHAPUSHPI SYRUP- 10 ML TWICE DAILY- ENHANCES BRAIN AND AUDITORY CLARITY

LOCAL THERAPY-
KARNA POORANA- EAR OIL THERAPY
USE BILVA TAILA - 5 DROPS WARM IN AFFECTED EAR, DAILY AT NIGHT FOR 3 WEEKS
NASYA- INSTILL 2 DROPS OF ANU TALA IN EACH NOSTRIL EVERY MORNING- CLEARS HEAD CHANNELS

PANCHAKARMA IF FEASIBLE GO FOR
SHIRODHARA
KARNA DHOOPANA 
HIGHLY BENEFICIAL IF HEARING LOSS IS DUE TO VATA IMBALANCE

DIET AND LIFESTYLE TIPS-
EAT- WARM, OILY, NOURISHING FOODS
AVOID DRY,COLD,SPICY OR JUNK FOOD
INCLUDE:- COW GHEE, DATE, ALMONDS, AND SOAKED WALNUT
AVOID EXPOSURE TO COLD WINDS IN EAR
USE EAR MUFFS IN WINTER OR WHILE TRAVELLLING

YOGA AND PRANAYAM-
BHRAMARI PRANAYAM- HUMMING BEE- EXCELLENT FOR EAR HEALTH
NADI SODHANA- CLEARS BLOCK CHANNELS
SHUNYA MUDRA- SPECIFIC FOR EAR PROBLEMS

MOST IMPORTANTLY-
IF NOT DONE ALREADY, GET AN MRI OF BRAIN+AUDIOMETRY TO RULE OUT ACOUSTIC NEUROMA OR INNER EAR DAMAGE
DO NOT DELLAY FURTHER- CHRONIC HEARING LOSS BECOMES IRREVERSIBLE WITH TIME.

FOLLOW THIS REMEDY FOR SUPPORTIVE LINE OF TREATMENT 
DO FOLLOW 
THANK YOU

Dr. Ayush Varma · Answer

Sudden hearing loss in one ear, especially if only 20% hearing remains, can be concerning, and considering that this has persisted for 5-6 months, it's crucial to ensure that all necessary medical evaluations– by an otolaryngologist have been done. While Ayurveda offers support, it's important to prioritize any unexplored medical treatments or follow-up appointments with your doctor.

In Ayurveda, hearing loss may be associated with the imbalance of Vata dosha, as Vata governs the sense of hearing. Here are a few considerations from the Ayurvedic perspective:

Start by ensuring your diet supports Vata balance. Consume warm, cooked meals with healthy fats like ghee and sesame oil. Incorporate foods such as sweet potatoes, carrots, and cooked leafy greens. But steer clear of cold, dry, or raw foods which can aggravate Vata.

Massage the area around the ear gently with warm sesame oil or Mahanarayan oil, which is believed to have nourishing properties. You can apply 2-3 drops of warm oil inside the ear but do this only if there’s no perforation and after consulting a professional.

Include herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi in your routine, either as teas or supplements. They're often recommended for supporting the nervous system and may help in managing Vata imbalances. A qualified Ayurvedic practitioner can help you with exact doses.

Practice pranayama (breathing exercises) like Nadi Shodhana, which can help balance Vata with its calming effects. Doing this regularly for at least 10 minutes each day might be beneficial.

Seek therapies like Shirodhara or Nasya under practitioner guidance. They can offer long-term benefits by balancing Vata and improving overall wellbeing. Again, please ensure there's no active ear infection before attempting any oil or herbal treatments.

Maintaining a consistent daily routine, minimizing exposure to loud sounds, and avoiding stress are also critical. I strongly encourage you to continue with medical follow-ups, as well, to address any unforeseen issues that Ayurveda’s holistic approach may complement.
