About Hearing Loss
Life is made up of all kinds of sounds: birds chirping, waves
crashing, a loved one's voice. These are among the thousands
of sounds that help enrich our lives. Most of the time when
hearing changes, it changes gradually. Sounds get softer and
voices can seem muffled. Gradual hearing loss is often
noticed by family and loved ones before an individual recognises a
change in hearing.
Unfortunately as the sounds of life fade, so does its
richness. People with untreated hearing loss often find
themselves avoiding social gatherings and activities where
communication is difficult.
Questions about Hearing
- Do you often ask others to repeat what they say?
- Have friends and family expressed concern about your
hearing?
- Do you avoid certain social situations because you have
difficulty hearing?
- Do you often set the TV or radio louder than others would
prefer?
- Does background noise interfere with your ability to follow
conversation?
- Do you have a history of noise exposure, either from work or
from noisy hobbies (motorcycles, power tools, loud music,
etc.)?
- Do you have tinnitus or ringing in your ears? (Ringing in the
ears does not necessarily mean you have a hearing loss, but there
are solutions for this).
If you have answered yes to any of these questions, it's time to
get your hearing checked. And there's good news! Early
treatment of hearing loss can improve quality of life. Book an
appointment at our hearing centre in Giffnock.
