Many elderly people have bad ears, but is it harmful?

Data show that the rate of hearing disability over 60 years old in China is high. In other words, at least one of the four elderly people over sixty years old has hearing impairment problems such as deafness behind the ear.

As the years go by, the human body continues to age, and hearing impairment also appears. However, many elderly people often do not pay enough attention to hearing impairment at the beginning, thinking that "behind the ear" is a very common phenomenon, and let it develop.

The elderly will ask or confirm questions because of the 'back of the ear', and the family members are constant, and over time, communication barriers will inevitably occur. Professor Sun Xibin, a veteran of Chinese audiology, mentioned, "Because of the fear of trouble, the elderly may become less and less talkative." He pointed out that hearing impairment can seriously hinder communication, affect the mental health of the elderly, and increase the probability of developing Alzheimer's disease (Alzheimer's disease).

Try to avoid staying in a noisy environment for a long time, and wear protective earmuffs for occupational noise; When listening with headphones, strictly control the volume, preferably no more than 80 decibels, and let the ears rest every half an hour or so.

Pay attention to ear hygiene and avoid frequent ear picking; Since the ear has the same eustachian tube as the nasopharynx, do not blow your nose vigorously when you have a cold or flu to prevent purulent discharge from being squeezed into the ear and otitis media may occur.

Thoroughly** related ear diseases, such as otitis media, perforated eardrum due to various causes, cerumen (earwax) obstruction, and sinusitis.

Avoid certain medications that can cause hearing impairment, especially in pregnant women and children, to avoid permanent deafness.

Develop good personal living habits, regular diet and rest, good attitude, quit smoking and drinking, and prevent sudden deafness caused by sudden emotional changes.

Can't hear clearly, difficult to communicate, doesn't like to talk, and has a withdrawn personality for a long time.

1.Hearing loss is easy to form dementia in later life, and in later life, people are deaf and hearing is reduced, and it is very difficult to talk to others. Many people are reluctant to talk to their later years, which will make them more lonely, unresponsive, intellectually discouraged, and the disuse of listening functions may exacerbate brain atrophy.

Finally, it leads to deafness and induces the occurrence of dementia in later life.

2.It is easy to form the energy of people in their later years, and people in their later years are unable to communicate with others normally due to deafness, so they will show anxiety, despair, disappointment, and depression. Since you can't hear it, doubts will occur, and in the long run, it will be easy to form a collapse of energy.

3.Deafness in later years is often accompanied by tinnitus, often high-frequency sounds. It starts out intermittently, appears in the dead of night, and gradually becomes continuous, and can be heard during the day.

Tinnitus usually begins at the age of 30-40 years, and its presentation rate gradually increases with age, reaching the extreme at the age of 60-70, and then decreasing agility.

In a number of seminars, the participants measured the health of the deaf whites, then prescribed them hearing aids, and after 3 months, they took the same measurements and found that their physical and mental health improved significantly.

5.Affect family life: Family members will repeatedly and loudly speak to the white family, and the white will also affect the harmonious relationship of the family members due to the distraction of the conversation.

Deafness is a very common ear disease, which will bring great harm to the health of patients and seriously affect their normal work and life. 1. Deafness brings great hardship and trouble to the life, study and work of patients. Deaf patients cannot hear clearly or hear wrong words, resulting in difficulty in learning, difficulty in communication, unsatisfactory work or embarrassment and trouble, so that deaf patients are gradually isolated from society.

2. Deafness brings discrimination in life or employment to patients, resulting in a sense of psychological inferiority, high pressure, depression, withdrawal, reluctance to communicate with others, and the formation of a withdrawn personality, irritable mood, short temper, and even worse, suicide. 3. Deafness affects the development of the central nervous system, resulting in atrophy of the auditory nerve, dull hearing, and slow thinking in the brain. Fourth, deafness makes patients lose many beautiful sounds in nature, and their ability to respond to social activities decreases.

5. Deafness is often accompanied by tinnitus or rejuvenation, which makes the language discrimination rate and expression ability of the elderly extremely reduced, resulting in the lack of interpersonal communication of the elderly, and the personality becomes withdrawn and eccentric, which may lead to the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease. 6. Deafness makes newborns lose the right to "hear" and "speak", and hearing loss will delay the normal development of their intelligence and language. Newborns are not able to receive information from the outside world from birth, which seriously affects the development of the language system.

Many elderly people have bad ears, the harm is greater, one is not clear, the sound may have some danger, the other is unable to hear the sound and the outside world communication is less and less, easy to cause cognitive impairment.

The elderly's bad ears prove that their physical function has begun to decline, and other aspects of their health may have been diseased, so it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination.

Nowadays, the elderly are old and have bad ears, they can bring hearing aids to help solve the problem of deafness, so as to help solve the inconvenience and harm caused by bad ears of the elderly.

There are many causes of hearing loss in the elderly:

First, the most important thing is the influence of age factors, the patient's various organs will have degenerative changes, including hearing.

2. The patient's blood circulation is particularly poor, including intracranial blood circulation, blood circulation in the middle ear cavity, if there is a tiny thrombosis, it is easy to cause the patient's hearing loss.

3. Elderly patients often work and live in a noisy environment, and are particularly prone to tinnitus or hearing loss.

4. Patients with hypertension, diabetes, hyperthyroidism, cervical spondylosis and other diseases are easy to induce tinnitus and hearing loss, and further examination is required to treat the symptoms at the same time.

Hearing loss should be detected early, early**, and intervened early.

Keep your life physically and mentally happy, pay attention to avoid noisy environment, and live a nutritious and healthy life.

Deafness is a progressive first-tone neural hearing loss that occurs with age, and the pathological manifestations are atrophy and degeneration of the nerve tissue of the inner ear, such as the degeneration of the hair cells of the cochlear spiral, as well as the degeneration of the auditory nerve and auditory center.

Generally speaking, most elderly people who suffer from deafness have hearing impairment before middle age. Some of the diseases that cause hearing impairment have stopped developing, and the hearing remains at the same level and no longer continues to decline, but a considerable number of diseases, such as the common chronic suppurative otitis media, continue to develop and deteriorate with age, not only the hearing loss continues to worsen, but even serious complications.

After middle age, the elderly will also be deaf due to factors such as ear diseases, other systemic diseases, damage from certain ototoxic drugs, noise, and aging. If I have some knowledge of the symptoms of deafness and pay attention to it, deafness is not difficult to prevent. Deafness can bring a lot of harm to the elderly:

1. The quality of life declines, after hearing loss, the old people will feel that the world around them is gradually getting farther and farther away from them, and the phenomenon of hearing and hearing makes the old people slowly become unwilling to speak and communicate with others, and they are bored and gradually become lonely.

2. After hearing loss, the elderly will think that the people around them have the same hearing as him, and will unconsciously raise the pitch and volume when speaking, or turn up the voice very high when watching TV and listening to the radio, which will affect the life of the family.

Long-term tinnitus in the elderly has the following harms:

One: Seriously affect the mood of the elderly, long-term severe tinnitus can cause people to be upset, depressed and depressed mood changes.

Two: affect hearing, very loud tinnitus can interfere with the content of listening, often can hear the sound, but can not distinguish what it is, at the same time tinnitus will be a poor rest, resulting in extreme boredom, so that dizziness can not concentrate, auditory sensitivity decreases.

Three: Affect sleep, tinnitus is especially worse in the dead of night, making it difficult for people to fall asleep. Even if you fall asleep, your ears still ringing in the middle of the night after waking up, making you irritable and sleepless.

When people reach old age, the health of the elderly is getting worse and worse, and all kinds of diseases are found, tinnitus is a more common one, and its appearance will bring great trouble to the elderly, so its harm cannot be ignored. Tinnitus causes a lot of inconvenience to the elderly, and very loud tinnitus can interfere with what is being heard, and it is common to hear voices but not be able to distinguish what others are saying. Long-term severe tinnitus can cause people to be upset, worried, worried, anxious, depressed and other emotional changes, and even reach an unbearable level, and some people would rather not hear than tinnitus.

Tinnitus rings especially in the dead of night, making it difficult for people to fall asleep, making people not resting well, and producing extremely boring feelings, so that dizziness, inability to concentrate, and decreased auditory sensitivity. Severe persistent tinnitus often makes the patient feel that something catastrophic is coming, so he or she has a feeling of extreme fear and great psychological pressure.

Tinnitus is often a symptom of other diseases and needs to be done as soon as possible, otherwise it is very harmful to life. At the same time, tinnitus endangers the interpersonal communication of the elderly, making them unable to hear others' speech, and they easily feel ignored by their families and feel left out, which is very detrimental to the health of the elderly. After suffering from the blows of family members or neighbors, the life of the elderly is more difficult, so children must pay attention to the tinnitus of the elderly, go to the hospital for examination in time, prescribe the right medicine, and alleviate the hardship of the elderly.

There are mainly the following harms: First, it will affect the mood of elderly patients, such as upset, depression or depression. Second, it will affect the hearing of the elderly, because severe tinnitus will interfere with the content of hearing, and the ears will often hear sounds, but they can't tell what they hear, and tinnitus will affect rest, produce a feeling of boredom, and dizziness or lack of concentration will occur in the later stage, resulting in reduced auditory sensitivity.

Third, it will affect sleep, tinnitus at night will make it difficult for the patient to fall asleep, even if he can fall asleep, the sleep is relatively shallow, and often wake up at night, tinnitus rings non-stop, making people irritable.

Tinnitus in the elderly will have a great impact on the patient's hearing, severe tinnitus will also interfere with what the patient hears, and in the long run, it will also affect the patient's mood, and long-term severe tinnitus may also make the patient upset, anxious and worried and other emotional changes.

Tinnitus is more common in our lives, especially in the elderly, and is more likely to cause tinnitus. Although tinnitus is not a serious disease, the harm of it cannot be ignored, and it is necessary to be aware of its harmfulness. So what are the dangers of senile tinnitus?

I believe that many elderly friends want to know.

It will bring inconvenience to the elderly and cause traffic accidents!

What are the harms of long-term tinnitus in the elderly, long-term tinnitus in the elderly has the following harms, first, it seriously affects the mood of the elderly, long-term severe tinnitus will make people upset, depressed and depressed mood changes, two, affect hearing, very much, tinnitus can interfere, listen to the content, often can hear the sound, but can not tell what it is, at the same time, tinnitus will be a bad rest, produce, extremely boring feeling, so that dizziness, energy can not concentrate, auditory sensitivity decreases, three, affect sleep, Tinnitus is especially worse in the dead of night, making it difficult to fall asleep.

This problem should be seen in the hospital as soon as possible, as it is serious and causes deafness.

For presbycusis, it is necessary to convince the elderly to realize the seriousness of the disease is the first step, which requires the love and patience of family members. Although presbycusis is common, it is highly intermittent, and if timely, correct and standardized intervention, the effective rate is more than 80%.

The Consensus on the Diagnosis and Intervention of Hearing Loss in the Elderly emphasizes that hearing aids are an effective means to help elderly patients with hearing loss improve their hearing and improve their auditory and verbal communication. Therefore, the occurrence of presbycusis must not be left unattended, and it must be detected early, diagnosed early, and intervened early.

Harm.

1. As they grow older, many elderly people's hearing will decline, and they will struggle to talk to people, often unable to hear clearly or even can't hear, and there will be a situation where they don't answer the question. Therefore, many people are reluctant to talk to the elderly, which will make the elderly more lonely, cause psychological trauma, slow response, mental decline, and disuse of hearing function, which may aggravate brain atrophy. It later leads to deafness and induces the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease.

Harm. Second, it is easy to cause mental breakdown, and the elderly are unable to communicate with others normally because of deafness, so they will be anxious, disappointed, pessimistic, and depressed. Because if you can't hear it, you will have doubts, and you will worry that others will say bad things about you, which will easily cause a mental breakdown in the long run.

Harm. 3. 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 between the ages of 30 and 40 and increases with age, peaking between the ages of 60 and 70 and decreasing rapidly thereafter.

Most patients with tinnitus become "habitual" to tinnitus as they age, and the tinnitus will disappear spontaneously.

Harm. Fourth, the elderly suffer from deafness, because they cannot hear the sound of horns and horns, and traffic accidents are easy to occur on the road.
