Permanent Versus Temporary Hearing Loss

Hearing loss may be permanent or temporary, depending on the cause. Causes of temporary hearing loss are usually linked to viruses and infections that affect the eardrum or Eustachian tubes, while permanent hearing loss has a wide range of causes. Both can be caused by extremely loud noises, and hearing loss is sometimes classified as either age-related or noise induced. Whether permanent or temporary, hearing loss does not always lead to deafness and can be treatable or curable, depending on the cause. Temporary hearing loss is usually reversible and often treated by addressing an underlying illness. Permanent hearing loss is most often caused by age, acute or chronic loud noises, genetic disorders, and autoimmune diseases. 

 Permanent or temporary, whatever type of hearing loss you may have, a hearing test heads the list of  how to determine its appropriate  treatment approach. There are three purposes of a hearing test: One is to ascertain whether there is a hearing loss problem. The second is to pinpoint the exact cause of the hearing loss. The third provides a solution. Begin your quest for better hearing with a call!

P.S. Gradual hearing loss should always be evaluated by a doctor. This type of hearing loss tends to be permanent but can also be attributed to a blockage like accumulating earwax.
