rukidding asked:


My dad is looking for new hearing aids but he wants someone who will do the job right rather than just for the money.
Thanks! You’ve been great helps!

I am sure I was told I can never use the hearing aid again in that ear that has had the cochlear implant operation if it doesnt work but can’t find any info on it. Can anyone help?

Blueboofrog asked:


I had a hearing test at hospital following an acoustic neuroma surgery which left me with hearing in one ear. That ear is now losing upper speech patterns, and doctors recommending a hearing aid. At reputable hearing centers, hearing aids range from $800 to $3000,(for one) and some require a high consultation fee. The on line centers average around $365 which is a big difference when you have no insurance. Thanks.

I have to have an hearing aid soon, but i’m just wondering if when i go into the factory at work i can take it out to put an earplug in? I’m not sure how it works, can you take them in and out?

LuvMyAutisticSon asked:


I’ve been to 2 doctors and 1 specialist. If I cover my left ear, everything sounds as though I’m under water. My ear drum looks fine, no damage, they cannot find anything wrong. Yet I still cannot hear well out of it. A hearing aid has no effect. 1 doctor said it could be psychological but what does that mean?
Why would I eve “think” I can’t hear out of it, it drives me crazy! I have to sit on the right of people just to hear what they are saying!

Imdatchick asked:


Im asking because i’m working on a project for class.

I have noticed by research that some deaf people wear hearing aids. I just thought that when you were completely deaf, then how would a hearing aid help. I know if you have some hearing left…then a hearing aid would work. But how would it work if you are completely deaf.

Could someone please expalin this to me.

williamjones101 asked:


friend’s hearing loss in one ear may have been caused by this. I understand this is a fairly new finding…If anyone has information and could help, I would appreciate it!

K. R.N asked:


I have moderate to severe hearing loss in my right ear. My hearing loss in my left ear is not much, though I have difficulty in hearing high frequency sounds through my left ear. I wanted to go for a hearing aid for my right ear. The people in the hearing aid center want me to go for the left ear first and then only for the right ear. I do not want to wear this instrument in both my ears. What should I do?

STAR CROSSED LOVERS asked:


I went on ebay looking for a hearing aid because I can’t seem to hear out of my right ear much anymore. My brother also had hearing problems due to our previous doctor letting an ear infection go to long and he had to have tubes put in his ear but I think they are out now but sometimes he still has trouble.

Do you think I should go with the 30 dollar hearing aid since it’s really the only one I can afford before it gets any worse?

david m asked:


My left ear has felt blocked for over 3 months now and i havent had any pain, but it just came and went. I finally got tired of it and i have been looking for a cure i dont want to go to the doctor yet. Anyways the left side of my nose is always stopped up and i tried blowing my nose really hard and i felt alot of stuff deep inside of my nose so i think its my eustachian tube that is blocked. When i yawn i feel pressure in my ear and it feel like the pressure tries to go out my ear and it hurts sometimes.If i go to the doctor will I have to have surgery and if left untreated will it lead to more serious problems? Any answers will help greatly, THANK YA’LL
