After knowing hearing loss it may be congenital hearing loss possible is Toxoplasmosis at birth , ASOM or glue ear or measles or Meniers disease etc.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.
Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks.
It may be due to drugs or toxins etc.
