What are causes for ear nerve damage?
Ear nerve damage can be caused by several factors, including exposure to loud noises, which can lead to noise-induced hearing loss. Aging, known as presbycusis, is another common cause, as the auditory nerve and hair cells in the inner ear naturally deteriorate over time. Infections, ototoxic medications, and certain medical conditions like diabetes or autoimmune disorders can also contribute to nerve damage in the ear. Additionally, physical trauma to the head or ear can result in nerve injury.

Can you go deaf by hitting a nerve in your ear?
Hitting a nerve in your ear can potentially lead to hearing loss, but it's not the nerve itself that causes deafness. Damage to the ear structures, such as the eardrum, ossicles, or inner ear, can result from trauma, which may affect hearing. In severe cases, trauma can also damage the auditory nerve, leading to permanent hearing loss. However, minor impacts are unlikely to cause deafness.

It probably saved her life by keeping her hydrated.
