Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have gradual decrease in hearing capacity with ringing sound in ears since 3 years which seems to be due to accumulation of wax in ear canal, fluid build up, sensoneural hearing loss and could be due to acoustic neuroma. I would suggest you to take antibiotic ear drops in combination with antiallergic medication. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get otoscopic examination done with the help of otoscope and start treatment after proper examination. Avoid touching and pricking it with any sharp object.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
I find this answer helpful
