Have you find it hard to understand phone numbers left on your voicemail? Are you strugglling to catch dialogue on TV or in a theater? Do you sometimes feel frustrated when a spouse, parent, friend, or co-worker has trouble hearing you?
Many of our patients mention that they or their loved ones are starting to notice early signs of hearing loss. In fact, many people experience symptoms but don't talk about them. Hearing loss is a common issue for many, but it can be treated in several ways. We offer hearing services such as hearing tests, hearing aids in Chandigarh, and treatments to help improve hearing. Here are some questions people often ask the ENT specialist at The Ear, Nose, Throat Clinic and Hearing Center:
The best treatment for hearing loss depends on its type and severity. For conductive hearing loss, which occurs due to blockages or problems in the outer or middle ear (like earwax buildup, fluid, or infection), treatment may involve earwax removal, antibiotics, or surgical correction. Sensorineural hearing loss, which is caused by damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve (due to aging, noise exposure, or certain illnesses), is usually permanent but can be effectively managed with hearing aids or, in more severe cases, cochlear implants.
Hearing aids typically last between 3 to 7 years, depending on their quality, usage, maintenance, and advancements in technology. Premium hearing aids made with durable components may function well for up to 7 years, while basic models may need replacement sooner. Daily wear, exposure to moisture, earwax, and environmental factors can affect their lifespan. Additionally, as hearing needs change over time or new technology becomes available, users may choose to upgrade sooner. Regular cleaning, proper storage, and routine checkups with an audiologist can help extend the life of your hearing aids.
While no exercise can completely cure hearing loss, certain physical and mental exercises can help support ear health and improve how the brain processes sound. Cardiovascular activities like walking, swimming, and yoga enhance blood circulation, which is essential for maintaining the health of the inner ear. Jaw and neck stretches can relieve tension around the ears and improve the function of the Eustachian tubes, which help regulate ear pressure.
Most of our patients reach a point where their frustration with hearing loss propels them into action. We assist in the process of identifying the loss, learning how it can be treated, and explaining the treatment options.
