8 WAYS TO PREVENT HEARING LOSS

‎8 WAYS TO PREVENT HEARING LOSS

‎* AVOID LOUD NOISES: Stay away from environments with extremely loud sounds such as concerts, fireworks, or industrial machines. 

‎* USE EAR PROTECTION: When exposed to loud environments, wear earplugs or noise-canceling earmuffs, to reduce sound intensity and protect your inner ear.  

‎* TURN DOWN THE VOLUME: Keep the volume moderate when listening to music, watching TV, or using headphones. 

‎* GIVE YOUR EARS A BREAK: After prolonged noise exposure, allow your ears to rest in a quiet place. Recovery time helps prevent long-term hearing fatigue.  

‎* KEEP YOUR EARS CLEAN SAFELY: Avoid inserting cotton swabs or sharp objects into your ear canal. Instead, clean the outer ear gently with a soft cloth.  

‎* STAY HEALTHY: Maintain good overall health through regular exercise and a balanced diet. 

‎* AVOID OTOTOXIC MEDICATIONS: Some medications can damage hearing. Always consult your doctor before taking new medicines, especially antibiotics or chemotherapy drugs.  

‎* GET REGULAR HEARING CHECKUPS: Early detection of hearing problems makes treatment more effective. Schedule a hearing test if you notice ringing in your ears, muffled sounds, or difficulty understanding speech.
