Hearing Loss: Now the Third Most Common Health Problem in USA
Hearing loss affects more than 36 million Americans. More than half of all hearing-impaired persons are younger than 65.
An audiologist is a specially trained, clinically experienced health-care professional who specializes in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating people with hearing loss and balance disorders.
"Causes can be loud noises; ear infections, trauma, or ear disease; harm to the inner ear and ear drum; illness or medications; and deterioration due to normal aging," explains Dr. Karen Jacobs.
