Don't let your ears hear you because you are old!

“It’s just that the ears don’t hear well. The back of the ears is normal when you get old.”

“Isn’t it just that the ears don’t hear well? If they don’t listen, they are quiet and clean.”

“It’s just that you don’t have good hearing. You don’t want to chat with others. You’re free.”

“……”

Often encounter the above weak hearing people, either unwilling to admit that they have hearing loss, or feel that the hearing loss is just the poor hearing of the ears, no pain or itching, no need to lie in bed, and no danger to life, so let it go.

But is that really the case?

Do you think hearing loss is so irrelevant?

No, you absolutely despise it!

Hearing loss and hypertension, heart disease, diabetes are the same chronic diseases, its prevalence rate is the top three of the ten chronic diseases of the elderly, it is a very common disease in the elderly, at least one third of the 65 year old people suffer from different degrees of hearing loss.

Today, we need to talk about the real harm of hearing loss from three aspects.

1. Hearing impairment

Under normal hearing, our ears can distinguish hundreds of thousands of sound nuances.

However, once some parts of the ear appear pathological changes, such as purulent otitis media, scleroderma with fixed stapes floor, and senile deafness with damaged hearing hair cells, then our ability to “listen” will be greatly reduced and hearing impairment will occur.

The problem of “bad listening” caused by hearing impairment is much more serious than we think.

For example

You may have a traffic accident when you cross the road because you can’t hear the car horn;

For example

You may not be able to hear the fire alarm and avoid the fire site in time;

For example

You may not be able to hear the phone ring and miss important information;

For example

When you are watching TV, you may need to turn your voice up so that the disturbing people will be complained;

…

These are the hazards of hearing impairment, and one more important thing is that we live in a world full of sound. If we don’t hear the sound, we will lose our sense of security.

For example

When walking at night, instinctively, a slightly loud voice will cause us to be alert; but if you have hearing loss, your world will be very quiet, and the quiet during night walking will make you extremely nervous and insecure.

2. Communication barriers

After suffering from hearing loss, hearing impairment will lead to communication problems: if you can’t hear it, you can’t communicate with people, that is, communication barriers.

For children, hearing loss can make them speak badly because they can’t hear well, affect speech development, knowledge learning, can’t communicate with the surrounding society normally, and finally lead to the inability to enter the society, which can be said to be affected for life.

For adults who have acquired speech, hearing loss will cause poor communication. They often interrupt in conversation, ask for repetition, answer questions that are not asked, and are gradually isolated from society.

The isolation brought by this kind of communication barrier is like a person being covered in a glass bottle, who can see the outside world, but can’t communicate with the outside world.

Take the example of old Li Tou:

Old Li Tou is an old cadre who is enthusiastic about public welfare. After retirement, he actively participates in community activities and often attends this meeting and that meeting. Although he is busy, he is full and happy.

But later, because of the poor hearing, I couldn’t understand what people were saying at the meeting. I had no choice but to retreat to the second tier and stay away from community activities. I had to stay at home and read newspapers and TV.

Because the TV was too loud to be complained and complained by neighbors, the son and daughter would not come back, because they had to raise their voice every time they spoke, making their faces red and thick, like a fight.

It can be seen that the communication barrier caused by hearing loss has brought a lot of troubles to the life, work and study of the hearing impaired people.

3. Psychological disorders

The communication barrier caused by hearing loss will eventually lead to psychological barrier, that is to say, it will affect the mental health of the hearing impaired people, which is the necessity of most hearing impaired people When it comes to “health”, many people think of physical health, no lack of arms and legs, no pain However, with regard to the definition of “health”, the World Health Organization (who) has put forward an authoritative view.

Who believes that the inner world is full, harmonious and peaceful, and maintains a harmonious balance with the surrounding environment, which is an important part of health, as well as a beneficial supplement and development for health.

When it comes to the “inner world”, it obviously refers to the psychological component of health, namely mental health.

Who puts forward eight indexes for judging mental health: sense of security, sense of stability, sense of adaptation, sense of autonomy, sense of happiness, sense of identity and sense of trust.

And hearing loss will affect our sense of eight.

For example

Originally, grumpy people will become more paranoid, suspicious, anxious and manic because of long-term communication barriers;
