Sudden near deafness

Hello, I’m 15 years old and a while ago when I was standing up looking at something both of my ear’s hearing suddenly took a dramatic drop to almost complete deafness. I could still in both of my ears, though but not much and there was this constant ringing in only my left ear. A week ago, I’ve hit the right side of my head and it was above my right ear. I did experience clogging of the ears for 2 days and that was it. After the clogging of the ear, I’ve also experienced really bad pain in my right ear for 2 days which lasted for 5min each day. Beside those 2 things, I have experience nothing else.

That is a sign of your inner ear having a few issues and is not uncommon to happen after a virus.  The eustachian tube can clog, close in on itself, etc. and cause what you are having.  Tell your mom about it!
