Say what? If you find yourself asking, maybe you\u2019re having trouble hearing. And you\u2019re not alone\u201413% of people in the U.S. over 12 years old have hearing loss in both ears. If you\u2019re among them and are wondering how to improve hearing loss naturally, there are things you can do.<\/span>1<\/sup><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>

In this post, we\u202fbreak down common types of hearing loss and natural remedies you can use to help protect and improve your hearing.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Before we dive in, let\u2019s talk about the basics of hearing loss.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Types of Hearing Loss<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>

There are three main types of hearing loss that each affect different parts of the ear.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Conductive hearing<\/span><\/b> loss<\/span><\/b> comes from an obstruction in, or damage to, the middle or outer ear. The damage or obstruction prevents sound from reaching the auditory nerve. Conductive hearing loss can be temporary or permanent.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The most common type of hearing loss is<\/span> sensorineural<\/span><\/b> hearing loss<\/span><\/b>. We hear when sound waves move the hair cells (cilia) in our inner ear, and that movement creates electrical impulses that travel to the auditory nerve in our brains. Damage to our auditory nerve or cilia results in sensorineural hearing loss.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Mixed hearing loss<\/span><\/b> is a\u202f<\/span>combination of sensorineural and conductive hearing loss<\/span>. It happens when a blockage or damage in your middle or outer ear makes your sensorineural hearing loss worse.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Causes of Hearing Loss<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>

Several things cause hearing loss.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

While age itself doesn\u2019t cause hearing loss, <\/span>33% of people over 65 have hearing loss.<\/span>2<\/sup><\/span> Age-related hearing loss, known as presbycusis, is a slow loss of hearing in both ears that results from changes in the inner ear as we age.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

A\u202f<\/span>variety of factors<\/span><\/a> can cause <\/span>hearing loss, including:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
