How hearing loss occurs
Hearing loss is attributable to damage or defect of one of three areas of the ear:
- The external ear canal: excessive ear wax can build up and cause a temporary hearing loss
- The middle ear: frequent ear infections, discontinuity of the ossicles, and a perforated ear drum happen in this part of the ear; if left untreated, any temporary loss from these conditions can become permanent
- The inner ear: The cochlea is the main hearing organ; excessive loud noise, heredity, age, drugs, and other factors can permanently damage this organ
To determine the root cause of your hearing loss, and the best hearing aids to treat it, call Digital Hearing Services in Chattanooga, TN, today.
The 4-1-1 on tinnitus
Waves on the ocean, crickets, clicking, high-pitched squealing or ringing: these sounds are a constant companion for those suffering from tinnitus. While there is no cure for tinnitus, it can be effectively treated with hearing aids. Hearing aids stimulate the cochlea and over time, lessen or eliminate these sounds. Enjoy the silence once more. Call Digital Hearing Services to discuss effective treatment for tinnitus.
