The main thing is hearing loss.
-
Experts recommend that if the following typical symptoms of presbycusis are present, they should be tested accordingly:
1) Unexplained bilateral symmetrical hearing loss occurs over 60 years old, mainly in the elderly.
2) Hearing loss is a slow, progressive worsening that often goes unnoticed at first. With the decline of high-frequency hearing, the ability to distinguish speech is affected, and the patient can hear the sound but cannot hear the content clearly, and often needs to be repeated by others. Later, as the frequency of speech is impaired, the speaker is asked to raise his voice to converse with him.
3) There is often a phenomenon of auditory revival, that is, patients often say, "I can't hear others when they speak in a low voice, but they feel too noisy when they are loud." ”
4) The resolution of speech is not proportional to that of pure tone hearing, which is called "phonemic decline". In most cases, pure-tone hearing loss is less severe than verbal hearing, and this phenomenon becomes more pronounced with age, that is, in many older people, although pure-tone hearing is basically normal, they still cannot understand the content of speech.
5) There is an age-related "additional" hearing loss in older people, resulting in worse speech function than younger people at the same hearing threshold level. There is also a tendency to underestimate one's own hearing loss.
6) In noisy environments, older people have worse understanding of language. Even though there is little loss of hearing acuity in older people, it is much more difficult to understand speech in a noisy reverberation environment than in young people with normal hearing. For older people with hearing loss, it is more difficult to understand speech.
7) Some patients with presbycusis can be accompanied by tinnitus, often high-frequency sounds. It starts out intermittently, appears in the dead of night, and then becomes persistent, and can be heard during the day. Tinnitus usually begins at the age of 30 to 40 years, and its incidence increases with age, peaking at the age of 60 to 70 years, and then decreasing rapidly.
Most patients with tinnitus become "habitual" to tinnitus as they age, and the tinnitus will disappear spontaneously.

Deafness refers to the gradual or complete loss of hearing in people who believe in it, usually bringing a range of discomforts and symptoms, including but not limited to:
1.Hearing loss: The most common symptom is gradual loss or complete loss of hearing.
In the beginning, it may be just a loss of hearing, making it difficult to hear certain sounds, especially the trebles. As the condition worsens, hearing loss can gradually affect daily life, such as not being able to hear conversations and making the TV quieter.
Tinnitus: Tinnitus is the sensation of hearing a buzzing, whistling, or other different sounds, sometimes a low, hoarse, rhythmic sound. Tinnitus may intensify and become more noticeable, affecting daily activities and sleep.
Feeling dizzy: People may feel themselves or their surroundings spinning, shaking, or losing their balance. The sensation may last from a few seconds to a few minutes and is accompanied by dizziness, nausea, and vomiting.
Ear pain or discomfort: When deafness is associated with an ear infection or pure inflammation of the slag plexus, patients may experience pain, tingling, or pressure in the ear.
Distorted voice: Some patients hear distorted sounds, even at loud volumes, the sound is not clear, and sometimes the sound is distorted or distorted.
If you experience hearing loss or other uncomfortable symptoms, it is advisable to consult a doctor as soon as possible for an ear examination and diagnosis. Timely** may help slow or avoid hearing loss.

I don't know you clearly, but that's probably the most common question.

The symptoms of deafness, conductive deafness and neural deafness are described separately. In the case of conductive hearing loss, first, there will be a feeling of ear tightness, ear blockage, then hearing loss, and even if there is a perforation, there may be this manifestation of tinnitus. If there is no cerumen in the ear, it is caused by the problems in the eardrum and tympanic chamber, so the most common is secretory otitis of the middle beam, and there is also ear blockage caused by poor Eustachian tube function, ear blockage, hearing loss, which is the most common symptom of deafness.
The degree of hearing loss is also different, the lighter ones may not feel very obvious, the heavier ones are normal people who have communication difficulties, and the more severe ones are the sound of gongs and drums that cannot be heard, so it is a symptom of severe deafness.
-
The clinical symptoms of deafness mainly include a series of clinical manifestations such as hearing loss, tinnitus, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting.
The causes of deafness are mostly related to the patient's diabetes, high blood pressure, narrowing of blood vessels, insufficient blood perfusion in the inner ear and other factors, which cause sudden hearing loss.
When we have the above symptoms, we should go to the hospital for treatment in time, and complete a series of examinations such as brain MRI, high-resolution CT of temporal bone, pure tone hearing threshold measurement, acoustic impedance, etc., to rule out deafness caused by tumor mass factors.
For tinnitus and deafness caused by simple cerebral insufficiency, we usually need to use vasodilator, nutritional nerve, hormone and other related drugs to quickly improve the symptoms of patients with curved lesions.

The symptoms of deafness can be divided into two categories: hearing loss and hearing impairment.
Hearing loss is when a person who is deaf cannot hear sounds normally, or can only hear very small sounds. In this case, the person may feel that the sound is very small or cannot be heard at all. In addition, people who are deaf may also have speech difficulties and cannot understand the words of others normally.
Hearing impairment refers to features that deaf people are unable to perceive sound normally, such as pitch, volume, and timbre. In this case, the patient may feel that the sound is cluttered or that she may not be able to distinguish between different sounds. In addition, people who are deaf may also experience speech impairment and are unable to express their thoughts normally.
Deafness can also cause other problems such as dizziness, ringing in the ears, headaches, vertigo, auditory hallucinations, anxiety, and depression, among others. In addition, deafness may also affect learning and social skills, making it difficult for patients to go to school and work.
In conclusion, symptoms of deafness include hearing loss, hearing impairment, dizziness, tinnitus, headache, vertigo, auditory hallucinations, anxiety, and depression. These problems can affect the learning and social skills of people who are deaf, making it difficult for them to work in school and work.

There is always a strange sound in the ears, and the hearing also decreases very quickly, and small sounds cannot be heard.

1. What are the symptoms of deafness?
1. Hearing loss.
When a patient becomes deaf, there is a slow hearing loss in both ears, first in the treble and then in the bass. Patients will first not be able to hear sounds that are not related to daily life. For example, birdsong and bug chirping, these small sounds are ignored by the patient.
Subsequently, the patient will gradually begin to have poor speech and hearing, and even need to use the palm of the hand to gather sounds behind the ear to hear clearly.
2. Revitalization phenomenon.
In our daily life, we often see some elderly people deafness, this kind of senile deafness, not only will cause the degeneration of the inner ear, but also lead to the lesions of the central nervous system, so the patient will not only have hearing loss, but also will have a decline in language recognition ability. Patients may not be able to hear the bass and be noisy in the highs.
3. Tinnitus. When some patients experience deafness, it is not sudden, but in an orderly manner. Most patients will have cicada-like tinnitus, intermittent tinnitus in the early stages, and most of them will appear at night, and tinnitus symptoms will disappear and lessen during the day.
In severe cases, tinnitus may affect sleep due to excessive tinnitus, resulting in dizziness and irritability.
Second, how to be deaf.
When deafness occurs, it can be done by taking drugs**, which can be used to dilate the blood vessels in the inner ear as much as possible, and reduce the blood viscosity of the patient's ear to promote blood flow in the ear. Some patients can also use hearing aids to assist their hearing, but they need to be examined by a doctor before choosing the right hearing aid.
-
Hearing loss is manifested as deafness, difficulty in hearing others, inaudible or inaudible to others, slow response, and reluctance to communicate with people, so it is recommended to go to the otolaryngology department for a hearing examination.
-
There are two main causes of deafness, one is inflammatory, and the other is neurological. Inflammatory causes include cerumen embolism, tympanic membrane perforation, otitis media, and mastoiditis, which can lead to conductive hearing loss in the ear. Neurological deafness is mainly due to exposure to noise or thromboembolism of the ear, and some are due to vertigo of the inner ear, such as Meniere's disease, which is accompanied by hearing loss.
In addition, some of the auditory nerve damage caused by trauma, such as temporal bone fractures, intracranial fractures, and hematomas, can lead to the appearance of deafness. Deafness may be caused by lesions in any one or more of the outer ear, middle ear, cochlea, auditory nerve, auditory cortex. After the sound wave conduction enters the external auditory canal and vibrates the tympanic membrane, it drives the ossicles in the middle ear, pushes the vestibular window and round window of the cochlea, causes the movement of lymphatic fluid, and excites the hair cells to produce action potential, which is transmitted through the auditory nerve to the auditory center of the cerebral cortex, and finally produces hearing.
Lesions in any one or more parts of the conduction pathway will affect the production of hearing and lead to deafness, mainly due to the following points: (1) Diseases of the external ear. Such as stenosis of the external auditory canal, cerumen embolism, boils and swelling of the external auditory canal, these diseases can cause the volume of the external auditory canal to decrease, hindering the conduction of sound.
2) Middle ear disease. Such as perforation of the eardrum, interruption of the ossicular chain, otitis media, middle ear deformity, etc. (3) Inner ear diseases.
Such as sudden deafness, Meniere's disease, noise deafness, large vestibular aqueduct syndrome, etc. (4) Postcochlear disease. That is, it refers to the lesions of the auditory pathway behind the cochlea, such as acoustic neuropathy, acoustic neuroma, auditory center processing disorder, etc.
-
1 Congenital: common congenital malformations, including malformations of the outer ear and middle ear, such as congenital atresia of the external auditory canal or hypoplasia of the tympanic membrane, ossicle, cochlea, vestibular window, etc.
2.Acquired: obstruction of the external auditory canal, such as cerumen embolism, bone warts, foreign bodies, tumors, inflammation, etc.
Purulent or non-purulent inflammation of the middle ear causes the middle ear to impair, or ear trauma damages the ossicular chain, benign or malignant tumors or otosclerosis of the middle ear. It is often caused by hypoplasia of the auditory nerve in the inner ear, viral infection during pregnancy, taking ototoxic drugs, or injury during childbirth.

Those with a history of familial deafness.
History of other ear conditions, such as otitis media, Meniere's disease.
Long-term exposure to noise.
History of ototoxic drug use.
Chronic mental stress.
Chronic systemic diseases, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and bad habits, such as smoking, alcohol consumption.

There are congenital, genetic, drug, noise, sudden, and so on.
Hearing impairment first brings difficulties to people's work and life interactions >>>More
Common types of deafness:
1. Conductive deafness: It is caused by the lesion of the middle ear of the outer ear, which hinders the sound conduction process. Common causes of deafness include foreign body in the external auditory canal, inflammation, congenital atresia of the ear canal, acute and chronic purulent otitis media, acute and chronic non-purulent otitis media, congenital malformations, and tumors. >>>More
Tinnitus and deafness are actually two different concepts, although there is a certain connection. >>>More
Patients with sudden deafness mainly manifest as hearing loss, in addition to hearing loss, there will also be tinnitus, which will have a great impact on life, and it is recommended to go to a regular hospital as soon as possible.
In life, many people will experience tinnitus, which is a common ear disease. When a patient has tinnitus, the ears will be filled with cicadas or tidal sounds. This is a phenomenon of auditory disorder, and the sound produced by tinnitus can be high and low, and the tone is also diverse. >>>More
