Everyone wants to celebrate our country’s heritage with an exciting fireworks display. However, close proximity to fireworks can cause permanent damage to hearing, especially in children.
A good rule of thumb is if you have to yell for the person 2 feet away to hear you, the noise is too loud. Make sure you wear ear protection at all fireworks.
STOP BY OUR DANVILLE OR LYNCHBURG OFFICE, AND WE WILL GLADLY GIVE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY FOAM EARPLUGS TO WEAR TO YOUR JULY 4TH CELEBRATION.
The National Association for Hearing and Speech Action has launched its Identify the Signs campaign.
In recognition of Better Hearing & Speech Month in May, the Better Hearing Institute (BHI) is sharing a list of 10 things you should know about hearing loss and your health.
March 25th was American Diabetes Association Alert Day. Better Hearing Institute urged people with diabetes to have their hearing checked. Hearing loss is approximately twice as common in individuals with diabetes, so hearing evaluations are imperative. Studies have suggested that high blood glucose levels in diabetic individuals can damage the blood vessels and nerves located in the inner ear, which can affect the ability to hear.
