While most noise is just in the background for us, loud noises, either in small spurts or prolonged exposure, can cause hearing loss. This has been happening more frequently as the levels of noise in an industrialized society go further up.
Noise induced hearing loss explained
Loud noises may damage the sensitive structure of your ear, which process the sound waves into information. They eventually become nonfunctional, resulting in a loss of hearing in that range. If exposure to lo...more

Are you experiencing severe hearing loss or turning deaf? To get back your normal hearing, you should undertake a cochlear. It is a small device which is planted in your ear via a surgical procedure. It sends impulses to the auditory nerve directly and as a result, sound signals are carried to your brain. Such an implant does not make you hear like normal again, but it helps you with sounds and knowing sounds around you such as telephones, alarms and doorbells.

A cochlear implant is beneficial if you are deaf or have difficulties in hearing. Cochlear implants are not hearing aids which just raise the volume of the different sounds you hear; they are surgically implanted inside your head. The implant transmits impulses straight to the auditory nerves which send the signals to the brain.
Cochlear implants can help you with sounds such as telephones, alarms or doorbells ringing. You can even understand speech or listen to music again with the help of ...more

Aging, genetics and noise exposure all play a role
having sensorineural hearing loss means there is damage either to the tiny hair cells in your inner ear (known as stereocilia), or to the nerve pathways that lead from your inner ear to the brain. It normally affects both ears.

अपने आसपास की ,अपनों की और प्रकृति में घुली आवाज़ें सुनना हमें बहुत स्वाभाविक लगता है। पर जिन्हें कम सुनाई देता है या बिलकुल सुनाई नहीं देता है वो इन आवाज़ों को सुनने के लिए तरस जाते हैं। बिना इन आवाज़ों के हमारा जीवन बिना साज़ के संगीत जैसा है। बहरापन किसी भी व्यक्ति को सामाजिक तौर पर, भावनात्मक तौर पर और आंतरिक तौर पर तोड़ देता है।
