Hearing loss could be inflicting you due to several circumstances, age, heredity, ear infections, medicines, injury, or long term exposure to loud noises. There are many instances where losing your hearing can be unavoidable, but there treatments you might be suitable for. In any case, when seeking care and treatment always be cautious in how you do it.
There are a few classifications of hearing loss; sensorineural, conductive, or a mixture of sensorineural and conductive. Sensorineural hearing is due to damage to your inner ear of the tiny sensor cells located there. The damage that cause sensorineural can be from illness, disease, injury, genetic disorders and age. Conductive hearing loss stems from sound waves not being able to travel from your outer ear to your inner ear. Earwax, fluid buildup, or punctured eardrums is the cause of conductive hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss is treatable through medical or surgical treatment performed by our leading specialists at ENT Specialists.
Your ear can be broken down into three major parts. The first part is the external ear, which includes pinna or the visible outer ear, and the ear canal. The second part is the middle ear, which includes the tympanic membrane or ear drum, and the ossicles or the middle ear bones. Finally the third part is the inner ear consisting of the cochlea, being the organ for hearing and the vestibule, being the organ for balance.
Hearing is basically when sounds waves enter through the ear canal, producing a vibration of the ear drum, which then passes through three tiny bones in the middle of your ear just behind the ear drum. After the sound vibrates through the ossicles, the nerves transmit to the nerves and fluids within the inner ear, and a nerve impulse that leads along the auditory nerve up to the brain.
