Causes Of Hearing Loss

Posted by allannkata on Sep 28, 2008 in Causes Of Hearing Loss

There are a number of causes of hearing loss; with the most common cause being associated with ageing, statistics have shown that one in three adults suffer from hearing loss by the age of sixty. However other associated causes include matters such as ear infections, exposure to noise, head or ear trauma, genetic conditions/syndromes, medications that are toxic to the auditory system and also diseases.

This leaves everyone at the risk of having hearing difficulties; and others even more, as a result of their job, perhaps. These may include war veterans (soldiers at war), road construction workers who are not fully equipped to protect their ears and arguably even dentists could suffer from hearing difficulties in the future.
