CT AND MRI SCANS FOR DIAGNOSING HEARING LOSS

Hearing loss may be conductive (a problem with sound waves traveling through the ear) or sensorineural (a problem along nerve pathways or in the brain). CT scans are commonly used to diagnose hearing problems when they’re suspected to be conductive. While a CT scan provides detailed images of the bones involved in hearing, an MRI may be used to diagnose sensorineural hearing loss because it uses magnetic images to look at the deeper structures involved in hearing and how signals are received by the brain. An MRI may be needed if the results of a CT scan are normal or unclear. Scans can determine the precise locations and causes of hearing loss to help doctors determine potential corrective procedures.

Because an individual’s hearing is linked to their physical, mental, and emotional well-being, we do all we can to provide high quality auditory care to help hearing impaired individuals better enjoy their world through the advanced technology available today. From sophisticated testing techniques to innovative hearing devices, we are here at BOBCAYGEONG HEARING SERVICE to not only improve your hearing but to improve your life. Start hearing what you’re missing and give us a call to arrange a comprehensive hearing test and evaluation.

P.S. The causes of some of the most common types of hearing loss—age-related and noise-induced—do not show up on CT and MRI scans.

Everyone Has a Story—and We’re Listening

At Bobcaygeon Hearing Service, every person who walks through our doors is unique. We’ve met incredible people from all walks of life—farmers, musicians, teachers, tradespeople—each with their own experience of hearing loss and their own goals for better hearing.

Whether it's someone navigating lifelong hearing challenges or a parent realizing they’re missing parts of conversation with their children, we're here to listen, understand, and help.

We believe in personalized care, not one-size-fits-all solutions. That’s what sets us apart—and what makes our work so rewarding.

Is it a problem if water gets in your ear? 💧👂

It’s actually pretty common and usually nothing to worry about.

But if water gets trapped, it can feel uncomfortable and sometimes lead to an infection.

Here’s how to help it drain safely:
✔️ Tilt your head and gently tug your earlobe
✔️ Use a hair dryer on a low, cool setting (from a safe distance!)
❌ Skip the cotton swabs — they can push water in deeper

Ever had water stuck in your ear? What worked for you or didn’t?

Your brain turns sound into meaning

It’s pure magic and science!

✨ Sound waves enter your ear.
✨ Your inner ear (like the incredible cochlea!) transforms vibrations into electrical signals.
✨ Those signals travel via your auditory nerve straight to your brain and suddenly, you’re hearing laughter, music, and voices that matter.

It’s a tiny, high-tech symphony happening every second. Let’s make sure your hearing system is in tune.

MY HEARING IS GOING…WHAT CAN I DO?

Many people experiencing hearing loss think they have suddenly lost their hearing, while the truth is most hearing loss happens gradually. The good news is that some types of hearing loss are temporary or reversible. Unfortunately, though, the most common types of hearing loss (age-related and noise-induced) are caused by irreversible damage to the ears or auditory nerve. In any case, the sooner you get an evaluation and diagnosis from a hearing specialist, the sooner you can slow or stop your hearing loss and find ways to improve your hearing. One common example of temporary, reversible hearing loss is caused by earwax buildup, and a single visit can relieve both your worry and the problem.

Deafness has sometimes been referred to as the silent epidemic. It’s painless and invisible, and it is estimated that, at some point in their lives, more than 275 million people worldwide suffer from it. The reasons might include medical conditions, noise pollution, aging, misusing personal listening devices, diet, and heredity. Men and women, young and old—no one is immune to the loss of this precious sense. Find out the state of your hearing. Consult with an audiologist at BOBCAYGEON HEARING SERVICE. Our services include thorough consultations, comprehensive testing, expert evaluations, custom fittings, and follow-up care.

The Link Between Hearing and Brain Health

Here’s a powerful fact: untreated hearing loss has been linked to an increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia.

Why? When your brain has to work harder to make sense of muffled or missing sounds, it has less energy left for memory and thinking.

🧠 A study from Johns Hopkins found that even mild hearing loss doubles the risk of developing dementia. The good news? Hearing aids can help reduce this risk by keeping your brain engaged and your connections strong.

Did You Know? Hearing Loss Often Goes Unnoticed

Hearing loss doesn’t always happen all at once—it can creep in gradually. Many people wait 7 to 10 years before seeking help, often thinking others are mumbling or that the TV is just too quiet.

👉 Here’s the truth: early hearing loss can affect your memory, mental sharpness, and even increase the risk of social isolation. But the good news? It’s never too early—or too late—to have your hearing checked.

At The Bobcaygeon Hearing Clinic, we offer professional hearing assessments in a comfortable, friendly environment. Your hearing health matters—don’t wait to take the first step.

HELP! MY HEARING AID IS TOO LOUD!

Any loud noise can harm hearing. Exposure to loud noises over time harms our ability to filter or distinguish frequencies. While hearing aids are designed to improve hearing, those that are turned up too loudly could damage hearing instead. When hearing aids are fitted properly, they are not at risk of causing hearing damage. Properly fitted hearing aids begin with a hearing test and finding the right device for your needs. The instruments are then customized to your individual hearing challenges using their settings. Properly fitted hearing aids should improve hearing and encourage the user to wear them throughout the day. Incorrectly fitted hearing aids may be uncomfortable and therefore discourage regular use.

Many of us don’t realize our hearing has been exposed to harmful situations until it is too late. Fortunately, we now have more opportunities than ever before to learn about our hearing and the ways to protect it. If you or a loved one has suffered hearing impairment due to excessive noise, disease, injury, medication, or the aging process, remember you’ve got a friend at BOBCAYGEON HEARING SERVICE. Our goal is a straight-forward one—help the hearing impaired through our expertise, personal service, and the latest technology.

P.S Hearing aids help prevent additional hearing loss and can even help restore some lost hearing by stimulating the auditory cortex, thereby improving the ability to process sounds.

July is National Ice Cream Month! 🍦

While our southern neighbours made it official in 1984, Canadians have fully embraced the excuse to cool down with a scoop (or two) during our beautiful, short-lived summer.

: While vanilla still tops the charts, maple walnut and tiger tail are uniquely Canadian favourites. And yes, Tiger tail, that orange licorice swirl is a nostalgic classic for many!

So whether you’re lakeside at the cottage, catching fireworks, or relaxing in the city, treat yourself to a little frozen joy this July. You deserve it.

🍨 Drop your favourite ice cream flavour in the comments. Bonus points if it's one you can only find here!
