he inability to hear normally is referred to as “hearing loss.”
Hearing loss is a lifelong disorder that happens when sounds are not delivered to the brain due to damage to the hearing components of the ear.
Depending on the source, hearing loss can be temporary or permanent, and it can affect one or both ears.
Hearing loss can range from modest (also known as partial hearing loss) to severe (sometimes called total hearing loss).
People with hearing loss may be unable to understand speech unless they can discern hints from other people’s speech or body language.
It is caused by a variety of illnesses, ranging from the ordinary cold to more serious and sometimes fatal health disorders.
Most temporary hearing loss may be repaired, but some people may require a hearing aid in both ears or possibly cochlear implants to hear normally again.
