How should hearing loss be diagnosed? What should you think about hearing loss?

It is recommended to go to a hearing institution for a hearing test.

There are many reasons for hearing loss, different reasons, ** scheme is also different, some patients are caused by cerumen embolism, foreign body in the external auditory canal, in this case, it is recommended to clean up cerumen and foreign body, the symptoms can be relieved.

There are also some patients who are caused by sudden deafness, this situation needs to consider drugs**, the more commonly used is to nourish the nerves, improve circulation drugs, some patients also need to use hyperbaric oxygen **, may also be caused by secretory otitis media, in this case, most patients can choose drugs**, but there are also a small number of patients The effect of drugs ** is not good, you can consider tympanic membrane puncture surgery, and then your hearing can be improved.

Hearing loss depends first on whether it occurs suddenly or gradually.

Sudden hearing loss should be treated by medical attention as soon as possible, there is a **72 hours** period, the gradual occurrence may be caused by poor physical condition or physical function decline after age, no matter what, it is best to go to the hospital for otolaryngology examination first, if it is caused by conduction problems in the middle ear of the outer ear, you can try medical intervention, if it is neurological in the inner ear, you can consider choosing hearing aids to improve the condition.

Hearing loss should first go to a regular hospital for examination, after ruling out organic problems, timely symptomatic**, some problems of the middle ear and the outer ear can be solved by surgery, the problems of the inner ear are generally more difficult to treat, if not, it is recommended to wear hearing aids in time to compensate for hearing and improve the quality of life and work.

The causes of hearing loss are extremely complex, and our hearing has conductive hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, and neural hearing loss. Causes of hearing loss, trauma can cause hearing loss, inflammation causes hearing loss. For example, bacterial, viral infections, etc. can affect our hearing loss.

There are also blood circulation disorders, which can also cause embolism and thrombosis of the middle and terminal blood vessels, leading to hearing loss that can also occur due to blood supply disorders. This is hearing loss, which is what we call circulatory embolism, which is mainly neurological and sensory hearing loss. The cause of hearing loss is actively diagnosed and treated.

First of all, you need to do an audiology examination, which is the most basic examination, outpatient screening, which can be screened with a tuning fork. Then according to the inspection, the preliminary cause is determined, and the corresponding ** can be carried out. For example, the ** of surgery, such as the ** of drugs, the Chinese patent medicine that mainly invigorates blood circulation and dispels blood stasis, such as ginkgo biloba, etc., the cause of hearing loss:

1.Caused by excessive ear cleaning and damage to the eardrum;

2.Diseases of the five senses: such as otitis media, rhinitis, etc.;

3.Caused by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases: such as hypertension, etc.;

4.Caused by excessive work pressure: such as excessive fatigue, poor rest, etc.;

5.Caused by high peripheral noise: a kind of sensorineural hearing loss caused by long-term exposure to strong noise, which is mostly related to occupation;

6.Adverse drug reactions: hearing loss due to the use of ototoxic drugs.

Suggestion: It is recommended that you must maintain a good mood, have a regular life, get proper activity to ensure sleep, exercise moderately, eat more vegetables and fruits, do not eat too greasy food, and do not eat too spicy food.

7.Diabetes: Diabetes damages nerves and blood vessels throughout the body, including the delicate ear.

8.Food allergies: Food allergies often cause a rash and can also affect hearing. Otitis media is more common in children.

9.Herpes zoster: The shingles virus causes pain in the nerves and perineural area**, although the area of infection is usually the chest, and sometimes the head, including the auditory nerve.

10.Mosquito bites: Mosquitoes transmit Lyme disease, which is more contagious during the spring and early summer.

Its early symptoms include a rash on the surface, flu-like symptoms, and joint pain, which can be diagnosed with a blood test. However, if you don't add **, you will have symptoms such as hearing loss and headache in about a week.

11.Antibiotics: There are antibiotics called aminoglycosides, which are used for tuberculosis or sepsis, which can cause hair cells in the inner ear to fall out, causing permanent hearing loss.

Hearing loss refers to lower than normal hearing levels due to various causes such as infections, trauma, tumors, immune, drugs, foreign bodies, and is one of the most common symptoms of ear diseases. Hearing loss can be divided into mild, moderate, severe, and total deafness according to the severity. Hearing loss can be divided into transductive, sensorineural and mixed according to the type, if there is hearing loss, you should go to the hospital for examination in time, find out the cause, early diagnosis and treatment, so as to restore hearing as soon as possible, and pay attention to prevent hearing loss in the ear.

The principle of hearing loss is to find, diagnose, and symptomatize. This includes medications**, surgery**, and others** such as blockage removal, hearing aids, cochlear implants, etc.

Home processing. According to the cause of the disease, the noise caused by the home environment should be reduced, and it is better to be quiet and comfortable; The drug should be avoided due to drug inducation, family supervision should be avoided for reuse of the same drug, and related risk factors should be avoided during home management.

Arrival at the hospital**. Drugs**.

Anti-infective drugs.

By fighting infection, the purpose is to reduce inflammation. Common ones include ceprofen and dexamethasone.

Anti-vertigo medications.

By dilating the cerebrovascular and cardiovascular effects, it significantly increases the blood flow of the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels and improves blood circulation. Common drugs are betahistine hydrochloride.

Surgery**. Cochlear implants.

For patients with neural hearing loss who do not respond well to hearing aids, the remaining hearing can be improved by implanting a special device in the inner ear, the most common method is a cochlear implant, which improves hearing by sending electrical signals directly to the auditory nerve that connects the ear to the brain.

Physics**. Over-the-ear hearing aids.

Over-the-ear hearing aids consist of a amplifier, amplifier and battery pack assembled in a small, lightweight plastic box worn behind the ear, the earphones are attached to the hearing aid by a short tube, which fits perfectly into the outer ear and needs to be closed to avoid loss of amplified sound.

In-the-ear hearing aids.

An in-the-ear hearing aid consists of a amplifier, amplifier and battery pack that is packed in a very light plastic case and worn in the ear. This hearing aid seals the ear canal to avoid loss of amplified sound. In-the-ear hearing aids are lighter than over-the-ear hearing aids, and the volume is easy to adjust.

In-the-ear hearing aids are not suitable for children because the size of the hearing aid must be adjusted at any time as the child grows.

Ear canal and deep canal hearing aids.

Hearing aids in the ear canal are only partially visible when placed in the ear, while deep canal hearing aids are specially installed inside the ear canal and cannot be seen from the outside, for patients with mild to moderate hearing loss, ear canal hearing aids and full ear canal hearing aids can be considered, however, these hearing aids are not suitable for everyone, such as growing children, some patients may have difficulty implanting, moving or adjusting the hearing aids in the ear canal, excessive earwax or discharge in the ear may damage them.

Stay away from noise: Hearing loss may also be caused by severe noise pollution, living in a noisy environment for a long time may cause tinnitus, which can cause hearing loss, you can wear protective earmuffs to alleviate the condition, it is best to stay away from the noise environment to avoid hearing loss.

2. Proper kidney supplementation: kidney deficiency will affect the patient's hearing, and even lead to a gradual decline in hearing, so we should choose the appropriate kidney tonic method, through oral Chinese patent medicine or dietary therapy can improve the condition, to avoid the harm of kidney function decline, yam, sesame, wolfberry, mulberry and other foods, can play a certain role in tonifying the kidney, deafness, tinnitus or kidney deficiency patients, can choose this method for dietary therapy.

3. Self-regulation of emotions: the inducing factors of hearing loss are more complex, long-term excessive mental tension and anxiety will affect hearing health, some patients if they often have excessive mood swings, it will cause symptoms such as ischemia and tissue edema in the inner ear organs, which will lead to different degrees of hearing loss, so we should pay attention to emotional regulation at ordinary times, and can not be happy or angry.

Mitigation for hearing loss:

1.Don't worry too much about hearing loss, first find out the factors that cause hearing loss, whether there is a foreign body in the external auditory canal, cerurumen, if so, it should be removed in time, and the hearing will be restored.

2.If hearing loss is caused by a perforated eardrum, the eardrum should be repaired and hearing will be improved.

3.If it is hearing loss caused by neuropathy, you can take drugs to nourish the nerves, and you should also maintain a good mood to effectively relieve nerve function.

4.If you are affected by noise for a long time, causing spasm of the capillaries in the ear, resulting in hearing loss, you can stay away from the noisy environment and avoid wearing headphones.

5.If hearing loss is severe, hearing aids and cochlear implants may be worn.

It should be tinnitus or other problems, you can go to the ear department to see.
