Which specialist assesses it? The otolaryngologist and the audiologist are the main references; in children, the pediatrician and the pediatric otolaryngologist also take part.

Common manifestations: difficulty following conversations, needing to turn up the volume, a feeling of a plugged ear, or ringing.
