heya,
i took my baby brother to a baby check up thing and the nurse said that she thinks he is deaf in one ear...
i dont think he is, but to make sure i took him to another doctor who did an x-ray check, and that doctor said that his ears are both perfect...
im worried because he always seems to be using his right ear for EVERYTHING and he doesnt really like using his left ear...
i myself have a nerve problem with my right ear, but that could be seen with an xray...
what do you think?

If he has fluid in his ears, which can make a child deaf, an X-ray isn't going to show it. (Nor would it show nerve problems.)
You might see about getting a referral to an ear nose and throat specialist and have him properly diagnosed. Tubes in his ears can work miracles. (It did for my son.)

I think you should take him to another doctor. You should also tell him something,whisper something in his left ear and if he ignores you then probably something may be wrong
