Geriatric deafness is a very common disease among the elderly. At the same time, geriatric deafness can also cause many problems, such as the loss of attention and memory, and because the old people’s hearing is not good, they are uncomfortable and safe when they go out alone.

The elderly with presbycusis are likely to have an accident because they can’t hear the car’s whistle when they go out. At the same time, most of the elderly will not be willing to intervene after suffering from deafness.

In addition to the above problems, I saw a question asked by a netizen on the Internet before. Does Alzheimer’s deafness cause Alzheimer’s disease?

Actually, it will, but it will not directly affect you. Even if you suffer from senile deafness, it will not directly cause you to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease. This influence is indirect. With the development of senile deafness and the weakening of auditory function, brain atrophy may be aggravated and the emergence and development of senile dementia may be accelerated.

At the same time, because of the deafness of the elderly, they often can’t hear what others say, which increases the psychological pressure of the elderly, and some people’s personality will also change and become withdrawn, which is also easy to induce the occurrence of Alzheimer’s disease. According to the research, the elderly with deafness are more likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease than the elderly without deafness.

For the elderly, the best way to prevent Alzheimer’s disease is to use more brain. On weekdays, the elderly can also participate in more social collective activities. On weekdays, the elderly can go downstairs for a walk with the elderly if they have nothing to do. When they go to work, the elderly can also go downstairs to chat with some old people in the community, play chess, play cards and so on.
