A 18-year-old patient presents with abrupt onset hearing loss in the left ear, noticed 54 hours ago. Hearing in that ear was normal before this onset. The patient reports a history of seasonal allergies. Otoscopic examination shows clear external auditory canals and the left tympanic membrane appears subtly retracted but intact. Tuning fork testing demonstrates that sound is heard more prominently in the left ear when the fork is placed on the forehead, and air conduction is worse than bone conduction in the left ear. The patient denies otalgia, dizziness, vertigo, focal neurologic symptoms, or tinnitus. The patient reports mild nasal congestion. Vital signs are within normal limits. The patient appears calm during the examination. What is the most appropriate management at this time?
