Ears are the most intricate organs of the human body. Even though they are also quite tough and effectively fight with ‘enemies’, many people still have troubles with hearing which often suggest serious disorders or inability to hear at all.
It’s not a secret that hearing loss is out-of-the-blue or gradual disappearing of one’s ability to hear the sounds of the world. One can lose hearing partially or completely, temporarily or permanently, mildly or severely – the characteristics of deafness often depend on its cause. Some people are born deaf even.
Possible causes of deafness are prolonged exposure to noise or natural aging process. As for symptoms, they are ‘blurred’ hearing, the feeling as if your ears are covered. Often a person doesn’t notice that he/she loses hearing at first, only when his/her family or friends let him/her know about way-up volume of the TV or radio, that this person mishears things way too frequently etc.
In the situations when a person loses hearing gradually, he/she suffers from it greatly. Hearing loss is often associated with loss of half-life (just as any disorder of such serious, disabling level). When a person finds out he/she experiences hearing loss, he/she starts shying away from starting conversations with others.
Deafness often results in loneliness, depression, independenceless… It prevents a person from being productive at work and from feeling normal in his or her other spheres of life. It is a very serious condition which in many cases doesn’t have a complete cure. In any case, if you are experiencing similar problems you must never give up.
