How To Prevent The Hearing Loss?
Hi This is Santhosh,in 2006 i observed my hearing is going down. so i have been to Dr. Chandrsheaker Hearing institute for a check up for my both ears. They did the Audiology test and confirmed me that i have frequent sensorial hearing loss in the both ears. Doctor told me that i may lose my hearing after 5 or 10 years, and there is no medicine for this. I have to go for hearing aids. Please help me and get my hearing back. or atleast constent my hearing is same. I could hear properly now. I could hear the beep ring sound contuniously from my Ear. Till today, i could hear properly, but i am scared that i might lose my hearing completely.

Hello,
Do not worry, you may get your hearing back. There are many causes for hearing loss. How old are you? Are you having any family history of hearing loss?? Are you a diabetic or hypertensive? Are you on any medication?
There are reversible (B12 deficiency, drug induced) causes and irreversible causes (congenital or degenerative) of hearing loss. Use B12 and folic acid tablets. Eat green leafy vegetables and fruits. If no improvement, please consult your ENT specialist with your reports and MRI scan, they will see and guide you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
