Regular voices sound kind of distorted.
by JEV4, Sep 28, 2009 07:14PM
I'm only 12 years old, and starting this morning, regular voices of people sound distorted. For instance, when a person talks to me, it sounds kind of like if you applied a flanger affect to a recorded voice. This has been going on all day, and considering my young age, it's kinda freaking me out. Assistance is appreciated.

It sounds to me like you have blocked eustachian tubes which are the tubes that run from the ear to the nose and to the back of the throat. When you have a cold, especially afterwards, the pressure in them can alter, and cause the eardrum to suck in a little. This can distort sound, like having a bucket over your head, or sound muffly. The best cure is to get some friars balsam, put a capful into a bowl of hot water, (take care), and put a towel over your head over the water and inhale for ten minutes every two hours...it will go. If it doesn't then see the doc.......I get this a lot...

This is not likely Eustachian tube dysfunction. I would recommend ignoring the above advice and getting your hearing tested by a professional if this is persisting.
