Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic and thanks for putting up the query
Your son might be having sensory neural hearing loss on right ear. Please send me his audiometry report.
Sensory neural hearing loss is not treatable with medicines. it can be managed with hearing aids depending upon the amount of loss. So send me his audiometry report so that I can suggest you better.
Please tell me is he having the loss since birth?
Has he acquired his speech accurately?
Follow up with the required information.
