Detect the Early Signs of Hearing Loss

Knowing the signs of hearing loss can help you catch it before it affects your hearing health. Let us help.

The importance of early detection

Hearing loss can often be sneaky, creeping up on you gradually and decreasing your ability to hear clearly until you find yourself missing out on the world around you.

Many different things can cause hearing loss, but the warning signs that you may be suffering from it are almost always the same. Some of the signs you may experience include difficulty hearing:

CONVERSATIONS CLEARLY

OTHERS IN CROWDED AREAS

TV VOLUME

HIGH PITCHED SOUNDS

Hearing speech & sounds

One of the earliest signs of hearing loss is in daily conversations with friends and family. If you have difficulty understanding others when they're speaking, they sound muffled or you find yourself asking people to repeat themselves often, it’s time to schedule a comprehensive hearing evaluation.

Constant ear ringing

Do your ears ring? Then it could be tinnitus. Tinnitus is when you hear intermittent or constant ringing or other noise in one or both of your ears when no external sound is present. Several factors can cause it, and in some cases, it may be the precursor to hearing loss or another serious condition. Some of the early signs of tinnitus include:

  • Hearing buzzing, swishing, or ringing
  • Trouble sleeping due to ear ringing
  • Hearing a pulse or heartbeat (pulsatile tinnitus)

Hearing loss risks

While hearing loss can impact everyone, long-term exposure to traumatic noise, such as construction work, live music and daily traffic, can contribute to noise-induced hearing loss. While sudden and violent exposure to loud noise doesn't guarantee hearing damage, wearing proper hearing protection in all loud environments is essential.

You may be at increased risk of hearing loss if you participate in the following without hearing protection:

  • Hunting or target shooting
  • Working in a noisy environment
  • Performing in or attending live music shows
  • Using farm or construction equipment
  • Prolonged exposure to loud engines or motorcycles
