Gradual Hearing loss that occurs with increasing age is common. Almost half the people that is older than 65 have some degree of hearing loss.
Hearing loss is of three types:
- Conductive (involves outer or middle ear)
- Sensorineural (involves inner ear)
- Mixed (combination of the two)
Many factors are responsible for hearing loss. In these factors aging and chronic exposure to loud noises both are the main factors that contribute to hearing loss. Other factors include like excessive earwax, can temporarily affect hearing that how well your ears conduct sounds.
Symptoms
Signs and symptoms of hearing loss may notice in people include:
- Not proper understanding of words, especially in crowded places.
- Muffling of speech and other sounds
- Trouble hearing consonants
- Asking others to speak more loudly ,slowly and clearly
- Withdrawal from conversations
- Avoidance of some social settings
Causes
Causes of hearing loss include:
- Gradual buildup of earwax. Earwax block the ear canal that prevents conduction of sound waves thus leads to conductive loss of hearing. Removal of Earwax can help to restore your hearing.
- Damage to the inner ear. Aging and exposure to loud noise for longer time may cause wear and tear on the nerve cells in the cochlea that send sound signals to the brain. Due to any kind of damage to nerve cells electrical signals are not transmitted properly that cause hearing loss.
- Ear infection , tumors and abnormal growths – These can be reason for hearing loss by affecting any part of ear.
- Ruptured eardrum. Loud noise, sudden changes in pressure, poking your eardrum with an object and any kind of infection can perforate tympanic membrane (ear drum) and affect your hearing.
Risk factors
Factors that may damage nerve cells in your inner ear include:
- Heredity. Your genetic makeup can affect your hearing.
- Aging. Degeneration changes of inner ear structures with time.
- Loud noise. Exposure to loud sounds for longer time can damage the cells of your inner ear and hence can affect your hearing.
- Occupational noises. Occupation where exposure to loud noise is a regular part of the working for eg. Construction or factory work , working in mines etc. can cause damage inside your ear.
- Recreational noises. Continuous exposure of noises from firearms and jet engines can results in permanent hearing loss.
- Some medications. Intake of some medications like antibiotic gentamicin, sildenafil (Viagra) and some chemotherapy drugs, can damage the inner ear. Temporary effects like — ringing in the ear (tinnitus) can occur with taking very high doses of aspirin, other pain killers, antimalarial drugs etc.
- Some illnesses. Some ailments that cause high fever, like meningitis, may damage the cochlea.
Sound levels of common noises
Decibels Noise source
Safe range
- 30 Whisper
- 40 Refrigerator
- 60 Normal conversation
- 75 Dishwasher
Risk range
- 85 Heavy city traffic, school cafeteria
- 95 Motorcycle

Complications
Hearing loss can affect your quality of life. Older people with hearing problem may have depression and isolation because hearing loss can make conversation difficult for them.

There are certain steps by following which you prevent noise-induced hearing loss and avoid severity age-related hearing loss:

- Audiometer tests.
Treatment of Hearing loss
If you have hearing problems, Treatment is purely based upon the causative factors and severity of your symptoms of hearing loss.

- Removing ear wax. Earwax affects the conduction of sound waves by blocking ear canal so it is a reversible cause of hearing loss. Your doctor can easily remove earwax using suction or a small tool with a loop on the end.
- Surgical procedures. In which there are structural deformities, abnormal growth in ear or abnormalities of ear drum are treated with the help of surgery.
- Hearing aids. These can be helpful if your hearing loss is due to damage to your inner ear. Hearing aid helps in amplification of sound and directs it into your ear canal.
- Cochlear implants. In severe cases of hearing loss where hearing aids, then a cochlear implant may be an option. A cochlear implant bypasses the damaged or un-functional parts of your inner ear and directly stimulates the hearing nerve.
