My 4 year old has had mild to moderate hearing loss since birth. She’s got DiGeorge syndrome and her audiologist always seems to make an excuse to why her tests aren’t the best. “Oh it’s her ear tubes” “oh it’s fluid” “oh I bet the other audiologist used the wrong test”. At what point do I put my foot down and say no she needs some treatment for this?
Hi I am 35 and I got mild bilateral hearing loss that came from an ear infection I saw an ENT doctor and he said it was normal to lose hearing over 30? I wasnt convinced so I went to a private Audiologist but they said it was mild but just to be aware of it. I do have trouble hearing conversations in daily life situations. Would I benefit from hearing aids do you think?
You may absolutely benefit from low-gain hearing aids. I would find an audiologist who does "loaner" or "trial" hearing aids so you can see if this would help. Untreated hearing loss, even in the mild range, has many unfortunate side-effects.
@@Arginne Hi I sympathize with you. I am going to set up an appointment with a Local Audiologist as I am now having low frequency problems in my left ear which was my good ear. I will see what they tell me and I may get referred back to ENT at the hospital. Up until lastyear when I had an ear infection I had no problems with my ears.🙈
@@littleheroespediatrichearing thankyou for the helpful advice. I do feel I may benefit from a hearing aid. I was told I didn't need one at 35. Now I am having trouble in my low frequency in my good ear. Have set up an appointment with an Audiologist
It absolutely can in many cases! That is one of the reasons to try to define if hearing loss is conductive (caused by a problem with the middle ear structure that can be transient or permanent) vs. sensorineural (something more permanent due to damage to the inner ear and/or auditory nerve). Great question!

@@leanne3687 what did they say
Hi can the mild hearing loss caused by fluid in ears be completely treated?
Same problem with me

The doctor told me I’m in first stage of hearing loss
