During a recent appearance with the “People Every Day” podcast, R&B singer Tank disclosed another health condition he faced after losing hearing in one ear. This news comes seven months after he revealed in a now-deleted Instagram video that he was not only going deaf in his right ear, but also “losing sound” in his left.

Tank informed the co-hosts of “The Real” talk program in November that his left ear hearing has gotten “pretty strong,” although he also pointed out that his right ear problems haven’t gone away. Tank also revealed that he was experiencing dizziness and was unable to walk in a straight line, which was later confirmed by the “Please Don’t Go” singer to be an acute case of vertigo.

Tank, who was promoting his latest album, “R&B Money,” talked about how his life has changed since his health problems.He admitted in the Dec. 17 podcast that only hearing out of his left ear was difficult at first. “It was tough at first, because now it’s like all the information is flooding one ear. That one ear was just like, ‘Hold up, doc, I can’t handle all that, and it took time to get that part of it.” Another thing that makes the experience difficult, according to Tank, is the vertigo.

The 45-year-old said that he suffers from vertigo “pretty much every day,” with symptoms ranging from “light” to “medium.” Tank said he learned to acclimatize to his body’s changes even while playing on stage, despite the challenges.

Tank concluded his comments on his hearing loss by noting that, since doctors only know what is occurring to him right now and what therapies are available, he is hesitant to undergo any surgical operations.

He went on to say that he’d prefer to wait and consider alternatives before making a major decision like having cochlear implants. “Nerves take time to heal, and it’s ultimately nerve damage,” Tank explained. “I’m going to give it some time before I start making any harsh decisions, like cochlear implants and stuff like that.”
