- Doctor of Audiology, Clifford R. Olson, from Applied Hearing Solutions in Anthem Arizona, discusses what the most common type of hearing loss is, what causes it, and what your treatment options are.

Clinic Website: www.AppliedHea...
Over 90% of hearing losses are Sensorineural. Hearing loss can occur in 3 different areas of the ear. The outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear. Sensorineural hearing losses involve the inner ear. More specifically, the cochlea and the Auditory nerve.
When Outer hair cells die, your best treatment option is usually hearing aids.
When Inner hair cells die, you may be a candidate for a cochlear implant.
When you have a tumor on your auditory nerve, aka. Acoustic Neuroma, you may need a CROS device or a Bone Anchored Hearing Aid (BAHA). In some cases, you may need a brainstem implant if both auditory nerves have tumors.
Always make sure to consult with an Audiologist to determine which type of hearing loss you have and what you should do about it.
As a person with SNHL in both ears, I appreciate how clear you sounded in your videos. I understood very well your videos even though I turned down my volume in a minimum level.
Do you also have Tinnitus?!?
I too have SNHL in both ears, in the very low decibel range..the loss doesn't affect conversational hearing at all..however, I have horrible head tinnitus that sounds like Niagara Falls on the Canadian side. Do you have tinnitus and if you do how do you deal with it? I have tinnitus as well in my right ear, but it's very high pitched and I've habituated to it...habituating to the roar in my head is something I've not been able to achieve, I'm in my fifth year dealing with it...some days I have no tinnitus at all.
WOW! That was the clearest explanation of sensorineural hearing loss I've ever been given as a hard-of-hearing hearing aid wearing person. I'm so glad I stumbled onto this one! Other audiologists and hearing instrument specialists should just show everyone this video! Thanks for the explanation, Dr. Cliff!
I hear less from my right hear , I'm just 18 years old, please help...
My parents don't know about it
Better perform an audiogram!that'll help u detect what kind of hearing loss is it!!it might be conductive!u can't just figure out with these videos..u gotta seek a doctor soon!!hope u takecare!
Same, I had my first hearing test the day after my 21st birthday. Definitely tell someone though and go to a doctor. They’ll be able to tell straight away if it could be a quick fix (wax buildup deep down) or if you need to have a hearing test.
Same problem, but I'm just 16 years old :/. I feel so depressed about it...
it might be just wax
Same here with my left ear,I’m 15 and I had a brain tumor removed about 2 and a half years ago.Since then I have has constant ringing in both of my ears,I’ve lost a smaller amount of my ability to detect higher frequencies but it still effects me every day or every other day-I’m most likely getting hearing aids sometime in the near future so that I can hear a bit more clearly but I would definitely recommend talking to your parents and consider scheduling an Audiology appointment at your local healthcare center to see what you learn and what treatment options are available to you.
This video gave me a deep feeling of anxiety.
😁😁
I LOVE your videos. You have them jam-packed with necessary information. Thank you for being so clear and concise.
Damn I wish I went to the doctor when I was younger my hearing on my left ear has been bad since I was seven and now I'm worried it's getting worse
May I ask did you ever go and get your hearing checked, it's never too late and hopefully they were able to help you.🤗🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you, Dr. Cliff, for the clear explanation on sensorineural hearing loss! I'm wrapping up my speech-language pathology graduate program with oral exams soon, and your video was a superb refresher on this topic from my audiology coursework years ago.
Excellent explanation. I do wear hearing aids now and I have Sensorineural Hearing Loss. I don't recall the audiologist explaining it to me this way. I actually read my health record and see it shows sensorineural hearing loss...although she is very nice, she never explained it to me the way you did in this video.
Great job and thanks so much for this information.
Please God,Heal Them With Your Powerful Hand.
Now I know why old folks always say young folks are always mumbling.
I always had excellent hearing, then about 25 years ago when I was in my late forties, overnight I developed SNHL. I went to work as normal and found that I couldn’t hear the telephone clearly in my left ear. I had the phone replaced, but had no improvement. I saw a ENT physician and I learned for the first time about SNHL. He sent me to have an MRI to eliminate the presence of any tumor or other cause (negative), but other than that no treatment options were available. My right ear improved-not to 100 percent-but the left ear continued to get worse. I now wear hearing aids; they have some limitations, which I’m sure is different for everyone. However, today’s technology is great. A side note: I had difficulty hearing, but during the COVID epidemic, trying to hear people who were wearing masks and/or standing behind a plexiglass shield was maddening. I still think everyone mumbles.😊
My Sensorineural hearing is perfect. I am very happy because I need to hear screen readers like Voiceover.
This was very informative and I have an abundance of understanding thanks to your clear explanation!
I am 48. On 31/08/2021, after a short afternoon nap, I suddenly could no longer hear from my right ear. The conduit to the tympan had been swollen for a couple of days but nothing serious. I went to the ER and diagnosis was otitis (there was redness surrounding the tympan) with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drops for 5 days. No change. In the shower, could not feel the water jet hitting my tympan. It was that bad. Went back to the ER. Now prescribed oral antibiotics for 5 days. Amoxicillin. No change. Finally went to my GP who diagnosed SSHL and immediately put on oral steroids by an ENT specialist for 10 days 60mg of Prednisone. I did get more flexibility in the ear but no change as to my hearing. Oral steroids were extended for another 4 days at the same dosage and tapered for 3 days. No change. First injection into the ear via the tympan. 1 week later no change. Audio still shows -60 to 80 db for lower frequencies and between -60db and -120db for higher frequencies. Now on a further 7 days of oral steroids, 60mg Prednisone. No change. Absolutely devastated. A buzzing noise in my ear outside when there is a lot of traffic. And it feels blocked. Still clinging to hope but time is against me....
How are you now? Any better?
@@uncoverlight8605 No change, it is now permanent. Awaiting an hearing aid but not optimistic.
@@Truthseeker1515 did you ever got help ? I'm experiencing the same
@@mulinzinga9981Do you still have buzzing in your ears?
high frequency hearing loss is most common problem in hearing loss. thats the reason why we hear ringing in the ear or tinnitus.
I can't hear with my right ear since childhood. :( It's sensorineural hearing loss. And there is no treatment of it (according to my doctor).
I wish I could hear someday with my ear. I want to experience how it feels.
Thank you, very clear examples of possible problems with my hearing.
Talks about hearing loss,
captions are default ._.
I lose hearing in one ear suddenly at random but it only last for a few seconds. I even feal a little off when it happens almost off balance.
Have you seen a doctor? Sudden hearing loss is emergency worthy.
DID IT GET BETTER FOR YOU?
I had a really bad ear infection on my right side and it seems now that my hearing is just fucked. I can hear but it's usually muffled, sounds like I'm underwater sometimes. It's so frustrating because I constantly have to get people to repeat themselves and I rely on lipreading sometimes. I haven't seen a doctor yet but I'm so scared that it could be a tumor or something. The noise thing is definitely something I experience - everything just gets drowned out and I can't make sense of anything.
I just ran across this video while trying to understand why my hearing has gotten so bad. I need to see an audiologist soon (only went once three years ago) because it's bad enough now to where it's impacting how I work. I appreciate your video so much- the way you explained high and low frequency in a noisy environment helps a lot! I think I might be able to help my boss understand better now. Thank you!!
Hi Olivia. Glad to help. If you have any questions, let me know.
@@DrCliffAuD Actually, I was wondering if it's normal to have normal hearing test results in a quiet, controlled environment but still present with trouble understanding speech/other sounds in a normal environment? Just got back from getting my hearing checked, and apparently there's nothing wrong physically? Any insight?
Good job Dr. Cliff
Excellent explanation of hearing loss!
Hello Dr,
My nephew has just been diagnosed with sensorineural hearing loss. However, he has been complaining of this pain in his ear for 2 years now! No painkillers or spray works and upon MRI examination, the inside of the ears look normal is what all ENT consultants have said.
Where is this pain coming from? It has affected my nephew's life massively and he is on the verge of dropping out of college because of the constant pain. The colder the months get the more he is in pain.
I have experience this in 3 times one tim i was taking care of my younger sis while watching tv, the volume is 15 tuen suddenly my left ear and go deaf and i hear high pitched noice, i got scared.. pls help me, i cant go to the hospital cuz theres covid 19 i might get infected, pls help me im also 10 years old...
How can an audiologist tell if the inner or outer hair cells have died from tone tests?
for a few years now the background noises around me seems to drown out when people are talking people who are talking even near me sounds like they are mumbling
I caught COVID 3 months ago and took hearing tests, which led to bilateral SNHL in both ears. Mild in my right and moderate in my left ears. I'm also a musician, and I can't hear high-frequency sounds
thank you doctor
Hi, I'm Suchona..A medical student.I have profound mixed type hearing loss in right ear and mild sensorineural hearing loss in left ear..will I gradually become deaf? what should I do now to prevent more hearing loss?
You found any solution it will be helpful if you can share
No youre not
Hi, how are you now?
I have hearing loss in one ear. Its been like 4 months now, the doctor said to come back in 6 months and no progress has been made. The first I realized I couldnt heat well, my parents went to the doctor after few days and it wasnt the cause of ear wax. I cant remember but It wasnt because of earwax. I dont know how I got this mess. Me sad me so sad
Can you please do a video on severe reverse slope hearing loss? I am 26 and had moderate hearing loss my whole life but now it seems to be getting worse & is 'severe' on the audiogram. I was told my type of hearing loss is pretty rare but was left with more questions and would love to learn more!
Dr. Cliff,
I have tinnitus & hyperacusis, and wear protection in environments predictably above 80(ish) dB. I wholly trust you, your audiological opinion, and your sniper background, here, and wanted to get an idea of whether perchance I was having a reactive sort of spike/fullness condition - or a genuine acoustical trauma situation. I cannot visit with an audiologist any time soon, and am a tad concerned.
We live in a semi-rural environment, and sometimes guns go off in the vicinity, for whatever reason - but I don't always wear plugs outside in my own yard. Today, I went out to use my reel-mower and enjoy the sounds of nature - but, after nearly an hour, a single shot occurred from the vicinity of where the neighbors often target practice directly behind our property. It must have been muffled some by the new, Spring tree-growth between us, or it came from further out from where they usually shoot, because it did not cause any pain when the waves hit my ear - like it did a time prior. I do have a slight fullness, and a blown-speaker(ish) sound in one ear, and a moderate-to-heavy spike in both though (of course, maybe a bit of it's from stress). Anyhow, just a single shot from probably a 9mm - from at least 25 meters.
Lastly, because it sounded like a 9mm pistol, I did the Distance Attenuation Calculator thing, and it said the 9mm's 160 dB was reduced to about 133 dB. Then I looked up the treeline attenuation potential and they put it at up to a 10 dB reduction - or an approximate 123 dB. Other than that, it was mostly cloudy, and that is supposed to mean it didn't disperse as much as on a clear day.
Hence, I ask you - the one who knows guns/ears better than anyone: what perchance could one-solitary-low-caliber-shot, under those conditions, mean to my susceptible ears?
Please advise, and thank you tremendously for reading, Dr. Cliff.
SSNHL hit me at 2030 26 Jul 24 and by 2100 I was fundamentally deaf in my RIGHT ear. Hearing was greatly diminished but I could turn up the sound system and the perceived midrange and treble was staticky like a wire sparking...bass wasn't right either...boomy for the low volume. Mids to highs sounded ike a blown audio amp causing "clipping" of the audio sine waves resulting in distortion. Since then, I've consumed information on SNHL. The sophisticated hearing test indicated my new R ear ability was 16% of what it had been.
My first Prednisone perfusion (shot thru the eardrum) was on Friday 1 week after the occurrence, another on Monday, and Wednesday and I'm on a 2 week treatment of Prednisone tablets. My ear constantly feels as if it needs to "pop..." and has a "rush noise" in the key of F#. It's aggravating, but livable. Normal everyday sounds come at you from different angles than you're accustomed to, I guarantee!
I feel like I have slight improvement as I'm constantly "experimenting" with it, but I can't rule out wishful thinking.
This video referred to this being a "common" type of HL and I have to say...a consistent statement I see in research it is the relative RARRITY of SNHL...I've seen 5-10 per 10,000 persons up to 20-40 per 100,000 persons. (MedScape, WebMD.) Had I watched this video first, my thoughts would have been, "...this happens to everybody!"
Kudos for him advising to have this seen about immediately...don't wait. My Neuro-otology Dr. gives me 66% chance of regaining a functional amount of hearing.
Allbest!!
The comment regarding Acoustic Neuroma surgery is incorrect. You will not automatically lose your hearing if you have surgery. In fact, if it’s retro sigmoid or middle fossa surgery, you are more likely to preserve current hearing levels than lose hearing. Yes, still a chance you may lose hearing, but not guaranteed as video suggests.
Great knowledge, thanks!
My ears feels muffled and but I can still hear pretty good it’s just the muffle that annoys me I also read that sinuses can make your ears feel this way it started in the right but now both ears are muffled do you think I’m going deaf?
I have SNHL in both ears, in the very low decibel range..the loss doesn't affect conversational hearing at all..however, I have horrible head tinnitus that sounds like Niagara Falls on the Canadian side. I also have tinnitus in my right ear, but it's very high pitched and I've habituated to it without any problems, in fact, without having to even try...but habituating to the roar in my head is something I've not been able to achieve, I'm in my fifth year dealing with it...some days I have no tinnitus at all. I've been diagnosed with vestibular migraine, but I also have symptoms of Menieres as well as MdDS. How can I make sure I have the right diagnosis?
I have SSD and sometimes I “hear” scratching noises in my profoundly deaf ear. What is that?
You couldn't hear a dump truck driving through a nitroglycerin plant.
Did you ever find out?
I have a hearing loss in my right ear [My Approximation is that i hear only 30-50% on that ear]while my left ear is normal..So i went to a doctor and i went to the audiograms and they told me what i already knew,but gave me some pills that i took and in the end it didnt help but to them it helped and i know i am not crazy but my right ear is like muffled and i hear less on it...So my questions are Will my left ear stay normal if i protect it in maximum effort and should i go to a doctor again and what should i say to them that could help me fix my hearing or is it unfixable.
I am 18
I had this hearing loss for quite some time but i didnt go to a doctor because i tought it was nothing
Hi,Dr.Cliff just Friday my left ear has been acting really strange. Everything is muffled and my ear hurts and it’s making me nauseous and dizzy. I told my parents about it but I don’t think they get how much harder it has gotten to hear. But all of this happened in the middle of the night, so I’m pretty worried. And also thank you for this video
Just happened to me
Did it get better for you?
Tell your parents you need to see a ENT right away. It might be viral and time is of essence.
I can't able to hear after 3000hz . Please help me... Please ....
I'm 20 year Old will I get deaf very soon
Hello Dr.
My 9 year old son has sensonural hearing issue. As per Audiogram & is using hearing aids for the last two years.
Still I'm worried that can it be possible to get rid of hearing aids?
Your kind advice is requested.
Regards.
If I hear that high pitch ringing regularly a lot does that mean something
I have moderate SNHL in both ears.
Me too
Since 16 i've had a pretty severe ringing in my left ear. I believe it happened when I was outside my backyard shooting a 16 gauge shotgun. I slowly got worse and it's to the point where there's distortion when people talk. It sounds like a blown speaker and there's pain. I'm now 23 years old. I'm worried of further damaging my left ear to where the slightest sounds cause this sensitivity. I'm writing today to see if anyone has some better insight on what more to do.
I saw 2 specialists, the first; saying sorry this happened to you but there's nothing we can do. The second; saying the left ear popping everytime you swallow will slowly alleviate the pressure/trauma and it should heal with time. Do you guys have an idea of what my left ear popping nearly every time I swallow is? I always believed it to be him just trying to give me hope. Lately, i've been hearing this ticking/pulsating sound in my left ear. It seemed like my hyperacusis was only getting worse from it. My ear would feel numb or itchy as well. Another symptom i've noticed is a heartbeat like sound in just my left ear. It tends to cause earaches or headaches, weirdest thing. Obviously stress and drinking can play a huge factor in this as well. I recently purchased air pod pros to be able to play pink noise and utilize transparency mode in order to aid my hearing. I've read posts where they say pink noise for a couple years each day will slowly act like a rehab for your ear. I've only been doing this for maybe 2 weeks. Do you guys find that pink noise was the best option? If so, how loud and what app do you prefer? Does anyone know of an app where you can play pink noise as well as listen to music or a podcast at the same time? Do you know of some ground breaking hearing aid that's unrecognizable that would help in public/busy areas? I was thinking some device that would reduce the noise input coming into your ear and producing a cleaner/lesser output back into the ear.
The ringing in my ear is bearable but the loud high frequency distortion is the hardest part.I don't know how much longer i can take it. I tend to avoid loud areas as much as possible but sometimes you can't escape it. You do have to live a little and socialize right? I also play hockey and it's super loud in the rink. Or is it not worth the chance of having it get even worse? Because i cannot even imagine how life would be. Is there some hope in all of this? Paul Stamets has some interesting research with mushrooms/neurogenesis and what not. I do see posts shedding more light on this unfortunate reality which is motivating. Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Found a solution pal ?
My hearing is became deep suddenly but it goes away when i wear earphones what is this?
Why i cant hear 3000hz with my left ear,i hear only by 30db that fhz.
All other fhz i can hear,just 3000 is problem?
I have susac disease. I have this type but can not be helped by amplification. Bone conduction works great. But baha is not fda approved for that
My right ear 👂 keeps going deaf then working again I just get my mum to put some olive oil in it only a drop that works it's probably just climate change the cold can affect hearing 👂 loss it's most common in the right ear more than the left. Just give it time to get better. Get fresh air, clean your ears or you can just riddle your right ear about I do that and it sometimes works.
Thanks for these vidz
You're welcome!
Sir my baby have moderate hearing loss plz give me solution sir
Sir I have hearing loss I can't hear well ,it's very hard to hear in noisy place and also I can't understand what someone is saying(mostly harder to understand in group discussion) . Sir please suggest me treatment for it
I have a problem with my hearing since i was infected with Malaria Two years ago i can hear in 30m distance if someone calling but i struggle to hear what he/she's saying so please help🙏
He didn't mention SUDDEN Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SSHL), which in most cases the cause is unknown (idiopathic). Then, immediate treatment with steroids is necessary and the only hope of regaining any hearing. It is considered a medical emergency! Just FYI.
Ruth Elliott i am suffering from this condition since a week and they prescribed steroids tablets for me 20mg,3 times a day, i am more stable & i have more balance when i walk but I still can’t hear with my ear! I am very worried I will never gain it back
@@Razan671
What is your condition now
Very good information here.
Thanks Kerry!
Dr. Cliff, I have been following your videos intently the last few weeks. I have been experiencing terrible diplacusis. Being a professional violinist and Orchestras teacher this has been a frustrating, discouraging and difficult time. Can you shed any light on the possible cause, treatment that you know of? Additionally, since December of 2020 I have lost nearly all hearing in my right ear. It's very odd because the degree to which I can hear changes day by day and even with in a given day
Sir hindi mai देखने के लिए क्या करना padega
Would you have a video or feedback from patients on life with a CROS? Or similar aid?
I am 40 now and have had SSD since age 1, I would like to know if patients who've introduced a hearing aid long after the onset of their deafness have experienced good benefit from it? E.g. to what degree are the main defects of SSD improved - like hearing in noisy environments, localisation, etc.?
I would love to hear ;) if they feel their hearing is substantially aided by a CROS or similar.
I find social situations so exhausting with just one ear.
Sir, I beg to differ. Seems there are 4 types of hearing loss. Here is #4: 4. Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD): The least common hearing impairment is ANSD. This type of loss requires more in-depth diagnostic testing, including a hearing evaluation with pure tones, otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) and auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing. In this type of hearing loss, the nerve fibers in the organ of hearing typically appear to be functioning well, but a breakdown of the information occurs along the pathway to the brain. A person may still have normal hearing to sounds, but the sound is not encoded properly at the brain. This type of hearing disorder is diagnosed more often in children, due in part to newborn hearing screenings that use automated ABR equipment and routine speech screenings by pediatricians and school systems, but can be present in adults as well.
Always enjoy your videos. Honest and informative. Yet, I've always wondered why you looked familiar to me, yet I've never been in Arizona. Today it just hit me - Jim Carrey. Anyone else notice this? 🤨
What is severe hearing loss and wich type this...hearing loss
Great video, thanks

Ur young I'm 14 and can't hear thru my right ear
You have imbalance problem when sleeping ، sitting, walking, standing ?
I have a cookie bite hearing loss (as I think I heard you do) and have been encouraged to buy hearing aids to treat this. You said in an interview that hearing aids are not an appropriate treatment for cookie bite hearing loss so I'm curious - what do you recommend?
My dr also said cookie bite and I can heae perfectly but not with background noises at a restaurant. She recommended a hearing aid and get to try them at her office and I couldn’t tell the difference because I can hear clearly not wearing hearing aids.
My ear muffles when loud noises are around
Yeh same u hear low
Hello Sir, I am 22 years old now and I am from India. I have a sensorineural hearing loss in both ear. I am facing many problems with that. I have also diagnosed that result that i have 75% of hearing loss. Sir, can you help me out that what and where my hearing loss occurred and i don't know that how it has occurred to me.😭 Thank you
दीपक bro.....I want to talk to you
How are you now?
Who watched this on a very low volume from fear that you may damage your ears even more?
Do you have ringing in your ears also?
I can't hear anything in my right ear.I went to a ear specialist doctor,then he advised me to check up with audiology test.The result came that I have problem sensory neural cell damage in the right ear.. Doctor suggested me to use hearing aid,I don't bought because I don't feel comfortable with hearing aid and my left ear is completely OK.
Now please tell is there any problem can be occur if I don't use hearing aid..such as memorize problem in brain???????😢Because I think my memorizing power decreasing day by day😧😧I can't concentrate on my studies properly...please please reply🙇
Now please tell,
Pls ans when yu say yu can't hear is that it or the ear feel like blogged pressure on ear too or just deafish I'm trying to understand pls reply
GUYS GUYS Like first before i tell
Thx for liking If you had hearing loss Press your ear for like 10 Secs! When You let go Now you had no hearing loss i did this before but it worked!
A bit confused with what you said about losing the ability to hear high frequencies. Here's why: I'm 40+, and to add to that, I've grown up from my early teenage years being in very noisy environments (clubs etc 4-6 times a week! lol) for YEARS ON END; and now my profession is also music-related, so I've been in very noisy surroundings for nearly 30 years. VERY frequently. What I don't understand is while I usually can't make out what people are saying when they talk in a lower volume, and when the there's mid-high volume background music I can hear the music but not them (whilst other people in our group can hear them) why is it that high-frequency sounds irritate me (when it doesn't irritate others)?? A bar, for example, had the bass frequencies nearly cut off (neighbors where complaining) and the sound was so terrible that it physically HURT my ears. While friends thought the sound was indeed bad, but were not "hurt" by it as I was. I mean, if, as you say, the reason that I can't make out what people are saying (in the above 2 scenarios I mention) is because I've lost the ability to hear mid-high/high frequencies, then shouldn't that mean that high frequencies would NOT BE ABLE to irritate me (since I can't hear them well to begin with)??
I have a hearing loss in my right ear please help me doc. My. Right ear can't hear and its ringing.
I'm only 19 years old
mine is not ringing
i can still hear clear words and songs at my right ear,but its poor and weak
what is this type of ear problem?
and can i know the treatment?
Hi Chim. I'm not sure I understand what you are saying. Are you saying that things are clear just not loud enough in one ear?
Hi Dr cliff I wear hearing aids and I love that I can hear netter and what if I totally lose my hearing
Is it hearing loss if someone has a difficulty telling what direction a sound is coming from?
Doc, I have had this problem in my right ear for about 3 years now but it isn't affecting me in any way so far, the effects have stayed the same since that time but I think I got this from my friend screaming in my ear back then, any possible diagnosis?
I'm confused on the Cros hearing device. You said it " sends sounds from your bad ear or the ear that no longer hears and re routes it to you better ear."
How does it pick up sounds from an ear that no longer hears? My better ear already hears things. I'm just not understanding the dynamics of this device.
I'm seeing an audiologist soon and My ENT has recommended this particular device. Please help me understand it more clearly
Thank you
What hearing aids would you recommend for SNHL?
Your show is awesome you explain it more cleanly then the Doctor and Audiologist keep the the good work up.!!
Thanks Ruben! My goal is to make information on hearing loss and treatment options more understandable. I'm glad you enjoy it!
When there is a loud sound like someone pounds a nail, I hear some cracking noise like plastic being crumpled in my left ear. I have a bell's palsy two years ago. Is it because of the bell's palsy why I hearing this?
Just a suggestion but in future videos could you talk slower, I cannot hear so I read the closed caption and I had to keep stopping the video every few seconds to have time to read what you just said. Thanks.
Hi, Dr Cliff
I recently had moderate sensorineural hearing loss of 45d my audiologist recommended RIC resound one 5 hearing aid. Wanted to know if its the right choice according to my hearing loss. Thank you so much for the informative video.
Hi I know this is an old video but , I have a granuloma on or in front of my right ear drum for the past year , I went to the ENT department a few times and no help...
I put a Neurophone on 3 middle aged people who were deaf from birth, in Indonesia, with music from my lap top,
and they heard the music for the first time in their life, - but only in one ear?
Dr. Cliff, Thank you so much for the informative video's. Can you clarify that it's possible via testing to determine the type of sensioneural hearing loss that is being experienced?
Traditional hearing tests are designed to determine exactly that.
Is it possible that my hearing loss could be from 80% on my right ear could be dairy allergies because they say that’s the worst allergies out of the food area and I’m eating dairy all my life but when I do eat cheese my ear feels like it is plugged and when I drink heavy dairy cream doing keto I feel my heart pounding through my ears I can hear my heart pounding through my ears I’m wondering if anybody can relate because I’m 67 and I’ve done dairy all my life but I don’t like being deaf in one ear so can anybody relate please
Hearing aids could not help my left ear. They fixed in my left ear widex evoke. But I couldn't listen the voice. When they speak I feel vibration of words in my left ear. But can't understand the words.
What is the solution of my hearing loss. Any oprate. Or something else.
Sir moderate hearing loss problem complasary using machine aaa
You have imbalance problem ?
Thanks Doctor Cliff. I have a neurological disability called Auditory Processing Disorder. Would hearing aids be better for me ? 👂👍Watching from London UK. 🇬🇧
Ty for the clear enunciation as I just woke up and still need to put hearing aids in haha but I got this kinda hearing loss from 3rd generation cephlasporin antibiotics be careful everyone if you take antibiotics it is rare but does happen
Hey doc my name is abaas from somalia some times my ear don't understand people voice 😢😢😢hearing is good
My hearing loss is cause by my auditory nerve but I still use hearing aids
I shoot a lot and I shoot quite a bit indoors. Most of the gunshots are 160 db+ and the concussions created by firearms especially rifles indoors is intense.. For instance if you hold a piece of paper next to the muzzle of pretty much any rifle, it will shred it from the concussion alone (no bullet, just the muzzle blast) . I wear foam earplugs (32NRR) underneath ear muffs (26NRR) So I'm wearing pretty much the most protection possible. Yesterday, I was at the range and there were 5 or 6 other people shooting rifles, after half an hour my left ear started to hurt ( first time that's ever happened, even shooting without ear pro when hunting my ears ring but don't hurt) I'm wondering about the risk of percussive damage to the ear through bone conduction. Common sense would tell me despite wearing ear protection if my ears hurt, damage is probably being done... I wouldn't think ear pro would do anything for the percussive force of an explosion propagating through your bones/ tissue and stimulating the middle ear bones. My question is, would the concussion from shooting warrant any concern even if the ear canal is sufficiently protected?
I believe so yes. The damage occurs if the Hair Cells are jarred too much. Depending on the dB level and consistency of exposure, I do believe Bone Conduction could cause hearing loss.
@@DrCliffAuD Thanks for the reply
As a kid I used headphones so loud my inner ear would tickle alot, now I'm pretty sure I hear less than others, what do I do pls
Go to an audiologist lols
I listen to music a lot
And my right ear is ringing really loud for 2 days now.
I put rubbing alcohol and it burn a little so I'm hoping it's just ear infection and not permanent hearing loss...
sameeee but all I hear is muffling
hi, can I ask how does pitch perception in listeners with sensorineural hearing loss?
I lost my hearing long time ago when I inhale my nose
What about cookie bite hearing loss? What kind of hearing aid would you recommend for this? Style and brand?
Can you do a video on reverse curve hearing loss please? I had a sudden loss in one ear in my thirties. Old analog hearing aid was 👎 so getting my first hearing aid (thirty plus years later) supposed to be helpful now. Is my type of loss (reverse curve) common?
This is not what I'm looking for, but my ears hear differently, my left ear hears the song normally tho it's the same my right ear hears it at a lower pitch and slower, does anyone know what this is called, is it diplacusis, or something else, cause diplacusis is hearing loss, however, I can hear, it's just not properly
Good evening sir. If we use head phone set, does it really leads to severe hearing loss? And how long period that we avoid hearing loud noise exposure? I mean, does it take how much time that hearing loud speakers may causes dangerous hearing loss? kindly reply me sir.
