Made an appointment with DOC, it's next week but my symptoms are getting worse, should i go to specialist now?

Question:

i started kind of feeling like ear clog and losing my hearing recently. I've waited about 1 week for appointment but appointment is next week so it will be 2 weeks of waiting by then. this week i started getting a new strange feeling and sound in my inner ear and also more feeling like i'm losing my hearing more. Should i just make an appointment with a ENT ear doctor now since they can probably attend me today? or is it ok to wait till next week and go to a general doctor who probably doesnt know much about my problem

Answers:
If it's getting worse and there's an increase of pain I would find a place to go and have it check fast. Have to try to make a walk-in appointment at the local clinic? Try taking some pain relievers, such as Tylenol.

You just answered your own question- why would you want to go see a general Dr. who "probably doesnt know much about my problem"?
Go see the specialist
