Hearing loss is unbearable. To live a life without having the ability to hear people talk clearly, listen to songs, birds chirp, or any other sound that make you feel alive in this world is a bane. But the hearing loss, to an extent, is treatable. People with hearing loss may lose focus in various aspects of life. Due to this, they might also develop several other health issues. What are they? And how to prevent it? Let’s seek the advice of an Audiologist.

We tapped into the knowledge of Dr. Goutham Gosu, a top-rated audiologist and the owner of Hearing Solution Center, a 2022 ThreeBestrated® award-winning Audiology clinic in Charlotte, North Carolina, to learn about it.

“Hearing loss affects the quality of life significantly. People with untreated hearing loss report social isolation, depression, and symptoms of withdrawal. Hearing loss, if untreated, is also associated with cognitive decline,” said Dr. Gosu.

  • Social Isolation: As hearing loss reduces social interactions, people with hearing impairment tend to isolate themselves from others. Aloofness is a common symptom seen in such people.
  • Depression: The impact of hearing loss on a person’s mental health is immense. Hearing impairment in a person may lead to depression as an action as simple as listening, once practiced by them with ease, suddenly becomes a disability. It emotionally affects the person, thus paving the way for depression.
  • Withdrawal: People experiencing hearing loss can be seen withdrawing themselves from work, gatherings, etc.
  • Cognitive decline: Nearly a 12-year longitudinal study at John Hopkins found that the risk of dementia doubled with mild hearing loss and tripled with moderate loss.

Dr. Gosu emphasizes that early identification of hearing loss is crucial to counter the effects. He said, “Family tends to notice problems with hearing before the individual recognizes them. Pay attention to what the family has to say, don’t brush it off as mumbling or selective listening. Get a comprehensive hearing evaluation done at a reputable audiology practice.”
