I feel so bad for him and it’s Christmas, of course so i can’t go to the store to buy him anything until tomorrow. Is there anything i can give him for now to help him out.

p.s should i start buying him wet food? he’s been on a dry food diet pretty much since i got him (he’s 5 months)

I am male, 40, have tinnitus (constant ringing) in my left ear which I have had for years and did not care about, and high frequency hearing loss in my left ear (65 db) probably worsening for years and haven't cared about. Nerve damage indicated (25db at high frequency). Right ear hearing is normal (a flat 20db across the graph). And certainly, my right ear seems fine. Grandmother had some hearing loss. Because of problems hearing at work, I went to a hearing center. He recommended a specialist and asked if I had been exposed to any traumatic sounds. I have not as far as I know i have not. I chose to wait until after Christmas on the 27th to see a specialist. I wish I had not waited or at least not looked on the internet as I am now worried about all the bad stuff I read. I am looking for answers from professionals only. I can read the internet. Given what I have described, what are the most common to least likely causes of my hearing loss? And are tumors rarely the cause?

Professionals only please. As far as I know I have not been exposed to blasts or excessive loud noise on that side. I have tinnitus. My hearing loss is severe in high frequencies (65 Db). I have some neural damage in that ear (25 Db in high freq.). My right ear is fine (20 Db). I am 40, male, and have developed hearing loss and tinnitus gradually. Loud noises bother me. I have trouble with conversations in noisy places. As a child I had measles which may be relevant in some types of hearing loss. After visiting a hearing test, I was directed to a specialist. After reading on the internet, I am for the first time taking my hearing loss seriously. In fact, I am worried. What is the most probable cause of my hearing loss? It's only in my left ear. What would still be common causes? Noise/environment? Otosclerosis? Acoustic neuroma? Are acoustic neuromas in fact extremely rare? I chose to deliberately wait until after Christmas. 6 more days… Is it still most likely noise?
