How Does Hearing Loss Occur?

Hearing loss develops when there is a problem with one or more parts of the hearing system. Most often hearing loss develops gradually and painlessly. It can be caused by:

  • The natural aging process
  • Exposure to loud or constant noise
  • Inherited medical condition
  • Traumatic injury
  • Ototoxic medication
  • Tumors
  • Illness

Do you find yourself or somebody you know making these comments?

  • “What did you say”
  • “Everyone seems to mumble”
  • “I can hear but can’t understand”
  • “People tell me, I turn my head to one side while listening”
  • “People tell me, I watch television with the volume too loud”
  • “Some words sound alike and too hard to tell them apart”
Then it is time you pay us a visit for prompt intervention.
