HEAR HEALTH PROMO MARCH

Oír Salud Hearing Centers brings to Lanzarote the new latest generation hearing aids and the latest advances in tinnitus.

According to the World Health Organization, more than 7 million people suffer from hearing problems in Spain. These data are associated with bad habits, increased life expectancy, a higher percentage of diagnosed people, side effects of other pathologies, taking ototoxic drugs, etc.

The most frequent symptoms are usually;

- Problems understanding, especially in noisy environments. Family members are usually the first to detect it.

- People who turn the television up very loud.

- Patients tend to isolate themselves, they do not want to attend social gatherings, parties or trips, since if they do not understand they prefer not to go out.

- Depression, anxiety, social isolation processes are initiated, thereby favoring the speed of development of cognitive impairment processes.

- The biggest complaint they usually refer to is "I hear but I don't understand" and sometimes "when I turn up the volume I understand less, I only hear noises".

In addition, depending on the degree and type of hearing loss, people with hearing problems understand some things better than others - for example, low voices better than high voices - which leads them to think that it is not a hearing problem. It is really because hearing loss varies in each person, affecting different hearing frequencies.

According to statistics, in Spain it takes around 7 years from the onset of symptoms to the decision-making and prosthetic adaptation, which delays and negatively affects the patient's evolution.

Hearing loss (hypoacusis) is classified into 3 types: conductive hypoacusis, sensorineural hypoacusis or mixed hypoacusis. And in turn in mild, moderate, severe or profound.

How to act in the face of a hearing problem?

If a hearing problem is detected, you should see a specialist.

In the consultation they will carry out a complete study and assess the best solution.

In the event that the recommended solution is the use of hearing aids or hearing aids, you should bear in mind that they have evolved a lot, improved in aesthetics, made to measure, with rechargeable battery, discreet, super powerful, colored, with mobile connectivity and latest generation sound processors that include artificial intelligence, which automatically helps to adapt to any sound environment.
