Human hearing is a delicate thing, and the ears are always at risk from suffering hearing damage from high volume levels. Concerts are a major reason for damage to the ears, but only if a person attends without hearing protection. Simply putting in a set of earplugs can significantly reduce your chances of sustaining hearing loss at a concert. Damage prevention is so easy, yet 28 million Americans still suffer from deterioration of their hearing as they get older.1 Lack of public awareness is to…

gifts from God to the oppressed and shunned. Deafness consists for two reasons; conductive hearing loss and sensorineural hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss occurs when sounds cannot make it to the inner ear, sensorineural hearing loss take place when the cells or nerves in the inner ear cannot receive or transfer sounds to the individual (Atkin). Both types can be present at birth or develop throughout one’s life. History proves that the deaf community can confront many barriers…

Transmission of energy through the middle ear created by changes in air…

The paper explores the Sensorial hearing loss, which is damage through the inner ear or to the nerves that send sound to the brain, which can cause permanent loss of hearing. Infectious diseases may be the cause for Sensorial hearing loss (HLAA 2005). The paper as well describes the common…

inflammation of the middle ear without reference to etiology or pathogens. Next to the common cold, otitis media is the second most common reason that patients are seen at pediatric offices and one of the most frequent reasons for prescribing antibiotics to children (Roland, 2010).
