My old man is deaf. Can I wear a hearing aid

Almost every family has so many old people. We can’t guarantee that everyone has hearing loss. But when people get older, there will be more or less hearing loss. We call it senile deafness.

Senile deafness is still a common symptom, so if the elderly suffer from senile deafness, can they wear hearing aids?

In fact, there are two kinds of people who suffer from senile deafness, one is the people who have just suffered from it for a short time, the other is the people who have suffered from it for a period of time. These two kinds of people are different for wearing hearing aids.

If it’s just for people with senile deafness, they don’t need to wear hearing aids in a hurry. Early wearing of hearing aids is likely to aggravate the symptoms of deafness due to the high-intensity sound stimulation of the ear. Therefore, patients with such deafness should go to the hospital for a period of time to see if there is a possibility of recovery or treatment If it has effect, if not, you can choose to wear hearing aids.

Actually, for people who have suffered from senile deafness for a period of time, they need to wear hearing aids as soon as possible, but they should pay attention to several points before wearing hearing aids.

Before wearing a hearing aid, you need to go to a hospital or a professional hearing aid fitting center to have a hearing test. In fact, this is very important and basic. But so far, many people don’t know that they will buy a hearing aid online and wear it. It’s no problem for decades, but it’s different now. The times are different. Hearing aid technology is different. The technique has also made a breakthrough, which is quite different from the past. Now all hearing aids are digital ones, which need to be debugged by computer.

In addition to hearing aids, we need to wear them comfortably, so we need to check the hearing loss first, and then we can choose the matching hearing aids.

Secondly, before we buy hearing aids, we need to have a reasonable expectation value in our mind. We need to have this mentality when we buy anything. If your expectation value is too high, unless that thing is near perfect, you will definitely feel lost. But how many things can be near perfect? Hearing aid is an auxiliary product. In terms of current technology, even a very high-end machine can’t achieve the effect of real ears. Therefore, you think it’s impossible to wear hearing aid like ears.
