Hearing\nloss can develop at any age and may be caused by many different factors.  Did you know that there are three types of\nhearing loss? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sensorineural hearing loss<\/strong> occurs when the inner ear or the\nhearing nerve itself becomes damaged. This is the most common type of hearing\nloss and is a result of aging, exposure to loud noise, injury, disease,\nototoxic drugs, or an inherited condition. Although this type is not medically\nor surgically treatable, most people benefit from the use of hearing aids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conductive hearing loss occurs<\/strong> in the outer or middle ear, where sound waves are not able to carry all the way through to the inner ear. Often sound is blocked by earwax or a foreign object in the ear canal. The middle ear may also be impacted by fluid and infection, or the eardrum may be injured. Medical or surgical intervention may reverse conductive hearing loss. Otherwise, hearing aid use is recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mixed hearing loss<\/strong> is a combination of sensorineural\nand conductive hearing loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Do You Know You Have Hearing\nLoss?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ninety percent <\/strong>of hearing loss occurs because the delicate hair cells in the inner ear are irreparably broken or do not otherwise function properly. This means that the brain is not receiving all of the information it should from the ears, and you can begin to misinterpret what is being said. Although hearing loss varies from person to person, here are the 10 common signs and symptoms of hearing loss:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Difficulty\nhearing on the telephone<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Asking\npeople to repeat themselves often<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Difficulty\nhearing people speaking when there is noise in the background<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Difficulty\nfollowing a conversation when two or more people talk at once<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Finding\nthat most people seem to mumble or not speak clearly<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Misunderstanding\nwhat others say and responding inappropriately<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Difficulty\nunderstanding the speech of women and children<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Turning\nthe TV volume up until people complain it is too loud<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Frequently\nhearing ringing, roaring, or hissing sounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Finding that some sounds seem too\nloud or too soft<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
