Q: What should I do if I suspect I have hearing loss? A: If you suspect you have hearing loss, it is important to schedule an appointment with one of our ENT specialists. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve the quality of life.
Q: Are there different types of hearing loss? A: Yes, hearing loss can be classified into three main types: conductive (involving the outer or middle ear), sensorineural (involving the inner ear or auditory nerve), and mixed hearing loss which is a combination of both.
Q: Can hearing loss be cured? A: While some types of hearing loss can be treated with surgery or medical management, most sensorineural hearing losses are permanent. However, they can be effectively managed with hearing aids, cochlear implants, and other strategies to enhance hearing.
