Let’s face it, there’s no getting away from aging, and with it often comes hearing loss. You can take some steps to look younger but you’re still getting older. But you may not know that several treatable health conditions have also been related to hearing loss. Let’s take a look at a few examples that […]
Have you ever misplaced your earbuds? (Or, perhaps, unintentionally left them in the pocket of a pullover that went through the washer and dryer?) Now it’s so boring going for a walk in the morning. You have a dull and dreary train ride to work. And your virtual meetings are suffering from poor audio quality. […]
Hearing loss has a track record for showing itself slowly. It can be difficult to detect the symptoms because of this. (After all, you’re only turning up the volume on your TV now and then, it’s nothing to be concerned about, right?) In some cases that’s true but in some cases, it isn’t. It turns […]
As your body gets older, it’s not hard to notice the changes. You get wrinkles. Your hair turns gray (or falls out). Your knees begin to hurt a little bit more. Your skin gets a bit droopy in places. Perhaps you begin to observe some fading of your eyesight and hearing. These signs are tough […]
Imagine for a minute you’re a salesperson. Now picture that you have a call scheduled today with a very valuable client.

It isn’t like you simply wake up one day, and suddenly can’t hear. For most individuals, hearing loss progresses in degrees, especially when it is linked to the aging process. You may not recognize it’s taking place right away but some signs do appear earlier. These early developing symptoms progress very subtly. Delaying the development […]
Isn’t pizza cool? You can change the toppings, sauces, even the cheeses involved, but as long as it meets some standard criteria, it’s still a pizza. That’s similar to hearing loss. Symptoms and manifestations are a consequence of many different problems – loud noises, genetics, age, ear blockages – but as long as you have […]

Diplacusis was so big, due to its long tail and neck, that no other predators were a threat. Actually, the long-necked dinosaur from the Jurassic Period is called Diplodocus.
