7 Signs You May Have Hearing Loss
In most cases, hearing loss doesn’t happen all at once.
In fact, hearing loss can occur so gradually that you
may not even notice a change in your hearing until the
loss is severe.
If you’re concerned about your own hearing or that of a
loved one, consider these common signs of hearing loss:
1. Others complain that the TV or radio is too loud or others seem to be
enjoying the TV at a volume too low for you to hear.
2. You pretend to follow conversations that you don’t really hear. Often,
out of embarrassment, people with hearing loss act as though they
understand a conversation, but their participation is limited or seems
out of rhythm with others.
3. You have a particularly hard time hearing women and children speak.
This may indicate a problem hearing higher frequencies.
4. You become frequently annoyed because people don’t speak clearly.
5. You often ask people to repeat themselves.
6. Background noises like those in a busy restaurant make it too difficult
for you to conduct a conversation with your companion.
7. The volume on your phone is set on high but you still can’t hear the
person you’re talking to.
If you or someone you know is experiencing signs of hearing loss, contact an
audiologist for a hearing test. Today’s hearing aids are discrete and there
are many options available for treating hearing loss. With the help of a
hearing specialist you can improve your life and communication with those
you love.
