"Is it possible the hearing loss is conductive and may reverse?"
I don't know what conductive means. As far as I know - I mean based on what little I know about hearing trauma - it's the hair cells in the cochlea that get damaged, and once they're damaged, that's it. They don't regenerate. At least at this point there is no treatment I know of. Maybe someday.
