Earwax
Could it be as simple as earwax?
Some people just make more earwax than others. Over time, wax builds up in your ear canal and can harden and become stuck, despite your best efforts to clean it out. Cleaning with swabs can actually make the situation worse by pushing the wax in deeper. You can’t feel this buildup, but it can lead to temporary hearing loss.
The solution is simple. Call us to schedule a visit. We’ll check your ears and can unplug them right away, if need be.
Tinnitus
How to treat tinnitus?
The most common symptom of tinnitus is ringing in your ears. This is annoying at a minimum, and can make it hard to hear everyday sounds. Severe tinnitus can be loud enough to keep you from sleeping, cause dizziness and nausea.
In some cases, tinnitus symptoms can be caused or exacerbated by allergies and congestion in your nasal passages. More often, the symptoms are an indication of developing hearing loss. Either way, the smart thing to do is to get your hearing tested right away and discover what your treatment options are.
Vertigo
Is vertigo putting you at risk?
Vertigo, or what some people just call dizziness, can cause you to lose your balance and increase your chances of falling. That’s the last thing anyone wants, but unfortunately the incidence of falls increases for people over 65.
It’s not a coincidence that many people over 65 are also experiencing hearing loss. Vertigo is caused by a disease affecting your inner ear. Your inner ear function is what helps you stay upright and helps with your balance.
If you or a loved one are experiencing vertigo, the first step is to get your hearing evaluated and to receive a professional diagnosis. The next step is to get treatment so you can maintain your balance and avoid injury.
D. Glaze says…
“I have worn hearing aids in the past with no success. I was a little apprehensive to my visit. But my wife was very persistent for me to keep the appointment. After little time with Liliana, I became confident that I was in excellent hands concerning my hearing. Liliana was very professional and patient. She explained the hearing aids in detail. The next day I picked up the hearing aids and for the first time, I could actually understand my little grandchildren and hear outdoor sounds that I have never heard before. Words cannot express my appreciation to Liliana Conner. My wife and I thank you for a life changing experience”
