The first sign of poor hearing ... Attention protects against serious consequences

German otolaryngologist Bernhard Jung-Hulsing advised that the ear should be protected from constant exposure to loud noise;

It may cause damage to the ear if the noise level exceeds 85 decibels is continuously exposed.

If the nature of the person’s job requires exposure to this high level of noise, then ear protectors should be worn.

The doctor stressed the need to consult the doctor in the event that the first signs of hearing impairment are noticed, such as setting the television on a very high volume of sound, and asking to repeat the speech while engaging in conversation.

The earlier hearing impairment is diagnosed, the greater the chances of treatment and preservation of the sense of hearing, bearing in mind that a good sense of hearing prevents the deterioration of cognitive abilities and reduces the risk of developing dementia.

In general, care should also be taken to follow a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals to maintain a healthy ear.
