*HOW HEARING LOSS CAN OCCUR? /CAUSES OF LOSS OF HEARING INCLUDES:

Inner ear damage – Aging and exposure to loud noise can be the cause of the wear and tear of the cochlea on the hair or nerve cells that transmits sound signals to the brain. When these hairs or nerve cells are impaired or missing, electrical signals are not transmitted as efficiently and hearing loss occurs.By greater pitched sounds, one can be muffled. It can be hard for the person to select words against the background noise.

Gradual earwax accumulation – By blocking the ear canal, Earwax may stop the conduction of sound waves.Earwax removal will assist in restoring your hearing.Infection of the ear and abnormal growth or bone tumors, either of which can cause hearing loss in the outer or middle ear.

Eardrum Ruptured (tympanic membrane perforation) – Strong noise bursts, sudden changes in pressure, the object pocketing and the infection may cause your eardrum to burst and your hearing to get damaged.

*RISK FACTORS

Factors that can harm or cause your inner ear to lose hair and nerve cells include Aging – Over time, degeneration of inner ear tissues occurs.

Loud noise – cells in your inner ear may be affected by listening to loud noises. Harm may be caused by long-term exposure to loud noise or by a brief outburst of noise, such as a gunshot.

Heredity – Your genetic makeup can make you more susceptible to sound damage to the ear or aging deterioration.

Occupational noises – Jobs where loud noise is a normal part of the working environment can lead to harm within the ear, such as farming, construction or factory work.

Recreational noises – Instant, permanent hearing loss can be caused by exposure to explosive sounds, such as from weapons and jet engines. Snowmobiling, motorcycling, carpentry or listening to noisy music are other outdoor practices with dangerously elevated noise levels.

Some medications – The inner ear can be harmed by medications such as the antibiotic gentamicin, sildenafil (Viagra) and certain chemotherapy drugs. If you take extremely high doses of aspirin, other pain relievers, antimalarial drugs or loop diuretics, transient effects on your hearing (ringing in the ear (tinnitus) or hearing loss) can occur.

Behind-the-ear (BTE) aids : A BTE hearing aid clubs the hearing components in a case that rests behind the ear: the case is connected to an ear mold or an earpiece by a piece of clear tubing. Young children often select this style because it can be customized into various ear mold types, which need to be replaced as the child grows. BTEs are an are ideal for moderate to severe hearing loss.

In-The-Canal (ITC) : Based on the mold of the ear, ITC hearing aids are contained in a shell like tiny case for a good custom-fit choice to fill in the outer part of the ear. For people who may like manual controls for volume and memory, ITCs are the best fit than smaller aids. These are the most apt for mild to mildly severe hearing loss.

Completely-In-Canal (CIC) : Like ITC, this aid is also contained in tiny cases. Being one of the smallest hearing aids available, these offer cosmetic and some listening advantages, these may fit partly or completely into the ear canal. Their small size may make them difficult to handle for some people.

The custom-fit deep ear placement can be removed for a good ear health with a small plastic “handle”. This can be only used for mild to moderate hearing loss and has to be used with great amount of caution.

In-The-Ear (ITE) : The ITE aids are larger than the in-the-canal (ITC) and completely-in-the-canal (CIC) aids and it might be easier for some people to handle than small aids as these are again contained in a shell that fills in the outer part of the ear.
