I’ve heard that OI can cause a certain amount of hearing loss through childhood up to the early 20s. How does this happen if it’s a disease that causes bones to break easily?

Is there a way to improve hearing with conductive hearing loss?

Is there a surgery or something? I have A prosthetic malleus and incus bones in my left ear and as a result I have a little bit of hearing. I had this done in august. Should I wait for hearing to improve or is there a way that I can improve it with another surgery or something?

I am 59 - male. Of late I realised that I have problem of hearing loss. ENT specialist cleared my both ears in excellent condition. They opined that it is nerval and is directly related to brain nerves. The audiogram reading was 35db(R) , 39db(L). Scaning of brain could not detect any problen in brain. After Ayurvedic treatment, again the audiogram test was made. It was 45db (R) and 48db(L). It is now about one year. Now I am not able to listen any sound clearly unless I concentrate much hard by pressing both side bones of cortex. Last month I was prescribed BIG PLUS and GGG capsules by an ENT specialist. Used for fifteen days. No positive result obtained. I have no idea as to what this medicine was given. Can my hearing improve and back to normal or will this be diminished day by day to zero?
