I am so depressed because of my hearing loss, i'm 19 and i should be talking and making friends but because of my hearing loss i rarely have anyone to call my friend especially to talk to because of my hearing loss. Can't afford hearing aids for now too. I really hope a cure would come so that maybe one day my life would go back to normal
Don't hold your breathe. It's going to be decades if not never before hearing can be restored on a general scale. I've been waiting for half of my life and I'm 72. Get hearing aids at Costco, they sell them, fit them, service them for about $1,500.00. If you go to an audiologist, you're going to be hit with a $5k to $8k bill! for hearing aids that aren't any better than what Costco sells.
Some states have recently enacted laws that require hearing care for anyone under the age of 25 if they are in school. You may want to check into possibility to see if you qualify for hearing aid assistance.
Man that's suck! I see that we can get this cure in 10-20 years. In meantime, you can try your luck at learning sign language and find a community or through online game. But results may vary cause that kind of story is decade old, I do try couple but resulted in 0 plus most game with text based chat isn't my thing. And even I don't know if that kind of friendship can be replicable in this era. But out of all place, I got luck on youtube comment though. Mine also start to detoriate too can't think what the future like for me especially I could only hear through left side of ear which currently cause a lot of mishearing . Oh, I got a lot of free time and lots of book reading so if you wanted to share or talk I can!
I truly enjoyed hearing of this news and your manner of communicating it. It had the right balance of science and relevance to this audience. You are also extremely well spoken and as a sufferer of hearing loss, I greatly appreciate that!
Chelation therapy was once a bad word in establishment medicine because some renegade doctors were getting encouraging results in treating cancers. A doctor in California had to serve time in prison and lost his license.
Interesting research. My tinnitus is definitely a result of loud noise exposure because i can pinpoint the incident when my tinnitus began. I can’t remember when my hearing loss started. I have had a few vestibular and hearing issues for years now. I would definitely volunteer if a research opportunity existed in my location.
I could probably use some hearing aids, but after reading how loud they can be I am starting to wonder if that's a slippery slope as well. I mean, hearing damage starts around 90 dB, but some hearing aids can jack sound up to 125 dB. Do I want to be exposed to that level all day? Probably not!
My question exactly. I take chelated zinc at moderate doses... Either zinc gluconate or zinc picolinate. It is a mineral that most people are deficient in so I'm NOT keen to give it up. So... further clarification is NEEDED.
I really think she should have addressed this. Apparently labile zinc is a very small amount of the actual zinc in the body, but it's unclear whether increasing zinc also increases labile zinc.
Пожалуйста держите нас в курсе новостей по поводу лечения. У меня в 2022 году полностью пропал слух на правом ухе. В 2023 году поставили имплант cohlear. Все равно живу в надежде что появится лекарство...😢😢😢
I started having tinnitus after ear suction and then sensorineural hearing loss but doctors always told me that ear suction does not cause but in my case I developed a tinnitus in my left ear too after ear suction after few hours. Means ear suction causes tinnitus. 😢Waiting for treatment
Firing a weapon inside a building will absolutely harm your hearing. Probably the loudest sound I've ever heard... and I've been near recoillesss rifles, mortars and artillery, spent many hours inside helicopters and military aircraft. But being in a room and shooting confines all the concussive force and concentrates it like a speaker cone.
Is there a way we can see inside cochlea in a young patient who lost her hearing in one side? Can we see if the hair cells are “down” or dead? MRI perhaps or there’s another machine Thank you!😊
Hi, hope you can help. How long does it take to for the ear to return to normal (Heal itself) after a very loud noise. (just one gun shot at the range that was way to close and unexcepted without earplug in) no pain just constant humm sounds now and little gurgle when yawning in my right ear only?
I have tinnitus but instead of hearing loss my hearing is exceptional, having nearly scored a perfect in a hearing test I have a problem with hearing too many things at far distances which I know to some would be a blessing but for me it's bothersome.
That inability to separate multiple sounds is age related. There's a technical term for it, but the common term is the "tea party effect" where younger people can pick a voice out in a noisy room, but older people can't.
Apple Watch (and I guess others) are able to measure constantly your sound exposure, very useful, and I guess pretty accurate since the software is designed for specfic hardware Also if you use AirPods Pro 2 with it, you can have an estimated level of noise reduction, pretty interesting I really hope we’ll find some treatement to cure this type of hearing loss, as I’m more and more in fear to not be able to understand people at all of enjoy music because of all noise exposure from all sorts. Majority of people look like they don’t even understand the issue and don’t do anything against. This need to be changed
RE: The researchers working with mice; how do they train the little critters to raise their hands to the hearing test? lol sorry about that. Properly placed Howard Leight MAX or EAR foam ear plugs are not often bested by custom silicone plugs. Use the P-NRR procedure to verify.
There is so much conflicting information out there you don't know what to believe anymore. 😢I've been taking zinc for tinnitus and it hasn't improved it at all. 😢
This doesn't mean that getting more Zinc is a bad idea. A zinc deficiency can _cause_ hearing loss and remedying the deficiency can restore that. It's a complex picture.
Interesting, but since it is just mice at this I int u would think its a minimum of 10 to 20 years away if it works on humans at all. In general i dont get too excited about clinical studies un mice.
Can future hearing aids be combined with hearing protection capabilities ... Did you mean: I afraid of more damage to my ears that can really happening on the streets ..why it is not considered? I already have Hyperacusis and tinnitus ! I believed that hering cells that is already damaged can be more pron for more damages then reg peopel even at much less ds sound ..is it true?
2:37 ou explain the hearing process when sound comes from the exterior, I would like to understand the hearing process when sound comes from the interior, such as the sound of our own voice. Because the entering door isn't the same I suppose the process is not the same either.
nothing is going to repair the microscopic hairs damaged in the ear, which is what hearing damage is, we don't even remotely have the technology to do so. always wear hearing protection in loud environments, ALWAYS. even mowing the lawn. hearing damage is one way only.
They've been experimenting with using stem cells to regenerate cilia in the inner ear, but it could be a long way off, if even possible. Plus, that's only part of the equation. Training the brain to respond normally to electrical impulses from the ear is another part.
But we have the technology to create Micro brain chips, Virtual reality, Self driving cars, and Artificial Intelligence, It’s not that advanced it just takes time, Also nobody wears hearing protection everywhere they go, you’re so behind in the research it’s supposed to be a treatment injected into your ears to regrow the hair, it’s not that complicated? they already have stem cell therapy and other scientists working on a treatment, This comment will shed poorly
@@ExplodingPsychethat’s if you lost sounds and certain noises, if it’s minor, your hearing should improve but if you forgot how to hear then it’ll be more difficult for your brain to respond

This video is useless to people suffering from hearing loss.

So does taking zinc supplements increase your chance of developing hearing loss?
Should you not supplement with zinc unless you have a shown deficiency?
My question exactly. I take chelated zinc at moderate doses... Either zinc gluconate or zinc picolinate. It is a mineral that most people are deficient in so I'm NOT keen to give it up.
So... further clarification is NEEDED.
@DrCliffAud
Just wanted to make you aware of an error in your video; Zn is the proper abbreviation for zinc on the periodic table, not Zi.
So are you say I should stop taking zinc which originally was a good vitamin for tinnitus?
I really think she should have addressed this. Apparently labile zinc is a very small amount of the actual zinc in the body, but it's unclear whether increasing zinc also increases labile zinc.

Будем надеяться, что найдут способ вернуть утраченный слух
Please remember that NAC is also proven to work for pre and post exposure. NAC is readily available.

You didn't cover the NRR rating differences between types of protection The in ear foams have the highest ratings

I was replacing boards on my deck and hammering loudly. My hearing went to about 20 %. It came back in about 2 months.
Did u get tinnitus with it? And did it go away?

Same happened with me.. single day loud noise exposure
Does this include fixing tinnitus?
Tnx Chris 🙏

Can my hearing loss be recovered? Due to side effects after Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy. 4 years ago.
