We've all had to ask the person we are having a conversation with to repeat themselves. If you find yourself asking this question more frequently, then you may be experiencing restricted hearing. What is restricted hearing, you ask? Well, restricted hearing is when your ability to hear the voices and sounds around is reduced. This happens because the tiny hairlike nerves in your ear either become damaged or are missing and sound signals are sent to your brain in a less effective way. Damage to these nerves is usually caused by constant exposure to loud noises or aging. Since we can't do anything against aging, we can find ways to help you manage hearing loss.
Tips to Prevent Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
1. Avoid loud noises
2. Use noise-canceling headphones instead of turning the volume up
3. Don't listen to music at more than 60% of the max volume
4. Protect your hearing during loud events and activities (sporting events, concerts, clubs)
5. If you are in an environment with loud noises, try to take a break every 15 minutes
6. Allow your ears at least 18 hours to recover from loud noise exposure
7. Take precautions at work like wearing ear protection if operating loud equipment
