A 33-year-old patient presents with sudden onset hearing loss in the right ear, noticed 31 hours ago. Hearing in that ear was normal before this episode. Otoscopic examination shows clear external auditory canals and the right tympanic membrane appears slightly retracted but intact. Tuning fork testing demonstrates that sound is heard louder in the right ear when the fork is placed on the forehead, and air conduction is worse than bone conduction in the right ear. The patient denies focal neurologic symptoms, dizziness, tinnitus, vertigo, or otalgia. Vital signs are normal. What is the most appropriate management at this time?
