Chronic recurring infections, fluid behind tympanic membrane and large adenoids and tonsils can cause hearing damage
There are a lot of things that can result in poor hearing. However, in a 2-year-old, the most common cause are ear infections in the middle ear, often referred to as water on the ear. I would recommend seeing an ENT to address any issues that your child might have regarding hearing abilities.
At that young of an age one should have their ears checked to make sure they do not have infection, Persistent otitis media infections Could lead to hearing issues and affect speech Development.
Did your child pass their new born hearing screening at the hospital?
