+++ 5 Myths vs. Facts about Hearing Loss +++

1) “Hearing loss means that one doesn’t hear anything”
That’s wrong. Hearing loss means that one does not hear certain frequencies anymore. So, there are many different types of hearing loss. The most common one is the high frequency loss. In this case the consonants as “S” or “F” are often not heard.
2) “We only hear with the ears”
Yes, we hear with the ears but understand with our brain. The ears are the signal receivers and transform sound waves into electric impulses, which are transmitted to the brain, where they are being processed.
3) “People with hearing disorder also often have memory problems”
That’s right. Hearing disorder leads to decreasing cognitive abilities. According to studies hearing loss can accelerate senile dementia. This highlights the importance of hearing screening for detecting hearing loss early enough, so that the right measurements can be taken.
4) “Women are hearing better than men”
There are differences: Statistically seen men are about 10% more hearing disabled than women in an age of 60 to 80 years. But one does not see this number as a gender phenomenon. It is rather guessed that men were more exposed to noise.
5) “We get used to noise”
Yes, e.g., people who are living next to a noisy train station will get used to the noise so that they do not recognize it anymore. With this habituation our body is avoiding stress. Nevertheless, noise can have a negative impact on our health (tiredness, depressions, lower performance, and other diseases).

How Can An Audiologist Help With Balance Issues?

In addition to tinnitus and hearing loss, one of the difficulties that can arise from problems with the human ear is related to how well we keep our balance. Particularly common with inner ear problems, balance issues can add an extra layer of challenge for someone with hearing loss or may be an obstacle all on their own. If you are experiencing balance issues, then a worthwhile step in getting to the bottom of them may be to meet with an audiologist.

Audiologists are trained specialists in hearing conditions, and this includes balancing difficulties. They can assess you in an appointment and diagnose the cause of your issues with balance, and if the issue is related to your ears, they can often be the ones to provide you with treatment that will remedy it.

When To See An Audiologist For Balance Issues:
If you have balance problems, there is no guarantee that they are linked to inner ear issues, and it is wise, if you have other symptoms, to first see your doctor. Assuming that there is not a more immediately concerning cause, the next step will be to see an audiologist. They will run you through a balance evaluation, with the goal being to understand why you are experiencing balance issues.

These evaluations can include three separate tests which are beneficial in diagnosing balance disorders:

• Saccade test: You will be asked to follow a moving target with your eyes, and the movement of your pupils will be monitored to evaluate rapid eye movement.
• Positional test: As the name may suggest, this test involves positioning your head in different orientations to assess responses like dizziness and when they occur.
• Caloric test: A small tube is placed within your ear canal, and water of varying temperatures is run through the tube; the audiologist monitors your eye movement.
After these tests are completed, your audiologist will have a better idea of what is behind your balance issues – and will potentially have vital information advising them on how to treat the issues.

What An Audiologist Can Do For Your Balance Issues:
Once an audiologist has studied your results, they will know whether your balance disorder is caused by an ear problem or not, and if it is the case, they may be able to offer you some balance (or vestibular) rehabilitation, a program of head, neck and eye movements that are designed to “re-educate” the body’s sense of balance. They will also be well-placed to refer you on for any treatment that might benefit you but which they may not be qualified to deliver.

Balance rehabilitation itself is most effective for people whose balance problems and dizziness result from head movement and motion sensitivity. These issues are ones that will become clear from the results of the Saccade and Positional tests in particular. It will also be helpful for your audiologist if you are able to explain to them the situations in which you most commonly notice your balance problems appearing.

After Aiden was born 3 months early, his parents found out he was profoundly deaf. Through genetic testing, they discovered he also has Usher Syndrome Type 1B. Since his diagnoses, he has grown into a talkative child who loves making up songs and singing them to his new baby sister. His mother Nichole says, "The technology and what the cochlear implants have done in these few short years are beyond our expectations. Although his vision will continue to get worse, we are very grateful, because of his implants he can hear."
