wheel bearings?

i have a Laguna 22dci when i turn the car left whilst driving i hear a rumbling from the right side, the sound gets worse as i increase speed. is it a wheel bearing? do i change both sides if it is? and does it have to go to the garage to get fixed?

thank you for the reply, now another prob has cropped up tyre sensors flashing lights annoying tried the disconnect number 2 fuse method no good. i think a large piece of masking tape over the display my work..next time its an audi or bmw

to check wheel bearings,jack up which ever wheel,hold tyre top and bottom and rock it in and out,is there excessive play.spin wheel,does the bearing sound dry or rough.if yes its duff.if you have some knowledge of cars a haynes type manual and the tools you can save yourself some cash,but if in doubt dont.always best to change both.
