There are many reasons why we lose our hearing, but the most common are prolonged exposure to noise and the aging process. Other causes include ear infections, genetic predisposition, head injuries, and certain medications. When the ear does not function properly, the brain does not receive sounds for interpretation. Hearing loss is often gradual, so we don't always notice sounds getting weaker over time. We may even begin to forget some of the sounds we used to hear. Hearing loss has a great impact on our family, social and work life, since it interferes with the way we normally communicate, which is speaking and listening. Therefore, hearing loss can lead to isolation. People with hearing loss often begin to avoid social encounters. The good news is that if you have a hearing loss, you can do something about it. Regular use of hearing aids can improve relationships with others, make you feel more secure in social situations, and enhance your overall quality of life. Hearing aids facilitate conversations and help reconnect you with your surroundings to live life to the fullest again.
