What Is The Mild Hearing Loss and Solution

First of all,we should know what is the mild hearing loss definition.And the mild hearing loss is defined by being unable to hear sounds that are quieter than about 25 decibels (dB) for adults and 15 dB for children. This includes sounds like whispered conversations, dripping water, leaves rustling, feet shuffling on floors/carpets, and birds chirping.

Degrees of hearing loss include normal, mild, moderate, light severe, severe and profound. These ranges are identified on an audiogram, one of the tests you’ll undergo as part of a hearing evaluation. An adult’s normal hearing range is between 0-25 dB across the frequency range. Normal hearing for children is between 0-15 dB.

Here,we the earsmate of the hearing aids manufacturer share you some ear health care solution in daily life.

There are 11 ways to protect our ear hearing:

1. Giving up the habit of removing earwax your ears

The removing earwax could damage to the ear canal and eardrum, and sometimes it can cause infection and reducing the hearing.

2. Prevent water flowing into the ear when washing your hair and taking a bath

Because the skin and eardrum are soaked in water, and stimulated by sputum (also known as ear silkworm and earwax), it is easy to cause the otitis extern. If there is a perforation of the eardrum, water in the ear can cause recurrence of otitis media.

3. Do the physical examination before swimming in summer

Patients with otitis extern, otitis media, external auditory canal embolism, eardrum perforation, etc., can not swim till these disease has been cure.

4. Auricular trauma, frostbite should be prevented from infection strictly.

5. Stay away from the noise and explosion scenes

For example the firecrackers, because of the loud noise can cause noise deafness, and the explosion will cause the knocking deafness.

6. Keep away from tobacco, alcohol and ototoxic drugs

The ototoxic drugs are including the as streptomycin, gentamicin, kanamycin, etc., because they are toxic to the auditory nerve.

7. Avoid hitting the head

Hitting the head could cause the hearing impaired, especially to attack the ear by palm, since attacking the ear by palm could break the ear drum. In life, the damage of the ear hearing caused by external force is not uncommon.

8. To master the correct method of blowing your nose

The right way is blowing the left and right nose one by one. Do not pinch the right and left nose and blow them at the same time, because the posterior part of the nasal cavity communicates with the middle ear cavity (the eustachian tube). If the nose is improper, the nasal secretions can be driven into the middle ear cavity to cause the otitis media.

9. Be more caution to take the flight?

Those who have colds, upper respiratory tract infections, or eustachian tube dysfunction should not travel by air flight. Otherwise, they may cause aviation otitis media, ear pain, eardrum congestion, middle ear effusion and even the hearing loss.

10. Beware of other diseases

The hypertension and arteriosclerosis is the main causes for deafness by the systemic diseases.

11. Regularly exam hearing

Senile deafness is the manifestation of the human body's aging process in the auditory organs. The age and rate of development vary from person to person, and it is related to genetics and various harmful factors (including diseases) experienced throughout life. Therefore, the elderly should exam their hearing regularly.
