How to wear a hearing aid, you must pay attention to these points

If you have poor hearing, you need to wear a hearing aid. However, before wearing a hearing aid, you must first undergo a professional hearing test. This way you can test what kind of hearing aid is suitable for you. After wearing it, you also need to adjust the hearing aid.

1. Professional hearing test: First, check whether the ears are blocked by cerumen, pus discharge from otitis media, etc. If you wear hearing aids during the purulent stage of otitis media, the pus can easily destroy the hearing aids. Secondly, a hearing test is required to find out the user's hearing condition. Digital hearing aids can be adjusted specifically according to your hearing conditions at different frequencies, so that the matching effect will be more ideal.

2. Hearing aid pre-selection: There are many brands, types, and models of hearing aids. For specific users, which one is more suitable for them is a professional problem that users cannot solve by themselves. It requires a professional fitter to help choose based on hearing results and hearing needs, and try them on and listen to see if the effect is ideal.

3. Take ear impressions, make ear molds or customize hearing aids: If you choose an in-ear or in-ear hearing aid, you need to make an ear mold based on the shape of the wearer's ear canal. No one else can replace it to ensure wearing comfort. Generally, the machine can be removed after 1 to 5 days.

4. Hearing aid debugging: After the device is completed, wear and debug it, evaluate the usage effect, and learn how to maintain and use it.

5. Follow-up: Adjust and calibrate the hearing aid as needed.

When choosing hearing aids for the elderly, it is best to choose a professional organization and have the wearer personally go to the site for inspection, trial wearing and debugging. Otherwise, if you buy inappropriate hearing aids at will, not only may you cause pain during wearing, discomfort such as excessive noise, or fail to improve hearing, resulting in waste, but it may also aggravate hearing damage.
