Hearing fatigue can lead to permanent deafness. Especially for noise-induced hearing loss, the early symptoms can be auditory fatigue.
I believe everyone has heard of visual fatigue, that is, it will be very tired to see the same thing for a long time. A group of explorers walked in the snow for a long time without wearing sunglasses. The light of the sun was reflected on the snow. They looked at the white snow for a long time, resulting in snow blindness.
So, let us talk about what is hearing fatigue and how to alleviate hearing fatigue.
What is auditory fatigue?
By definition, hearing fatigue’s main meaning is that in a strong noise environment, the patient’s ears will be particularly uncomfortable due to noise stimulation.
After the patient has stayed in this environment for a period of time, listening to other sounds will become very dull, and the originally heard particularly subtle and light sounds can not be heard.
In essence, auditory fatigue is the same as visual fatigue. Eventually, it will lead to the damage of human organs, and the damage is irreversible.
For people with hearing loss, they are more likely to have hearing fatigue. They may feel very tired after listening for a long time.
In fact, the frequent occurrence of hearing fatigue is one of the early symptoms of hearing loss. Please find out and intervene as soon as possible when you have hearing fatigue.
The degree of noise-induced hearing loss is related to the intensity of noise and the time of exposure to noise.
If the time of exposure to noise is prolonged, the bearing capacity of the ear will become weaker and weaker.
After all, if you are exposed to strong noise only once, your hearing will return to its original condition after you get an effective rest.
However, if you are exposed to noise again before the previous hearing change has not fully recovered, resulting in increased hearing fatigue, the hearing change cannot be recovered and becomes a permanent hearing threshold displacement, that is, permanent deafness.
Therefore, when entering a strong noise environment, please take good hearing protection measures!
The causes of ear injury are diverse and complex:
One is to avoid over-cleaning the ears. If there is a foreign body in the ear canal that cannot be handled by yourself, go to the hospital in time.
Second, ear diseases may lead to tinnitus, but as long as it is treated in time, the symptoms will disappear. At the same time, we should also strengthen physical exercise and enhance immunity!
Third, equivalent to the outer and middle ears, tinnitus caused by inner ear diseases and hearing impairment is the most common. The most important thing is to work and rest healthily and pay attention to sleep.
So how to alleviate hearing fatigue?
- Conduct hearing examination regularly and do a good job in screening and prevention.
- Use anti-noise earplugs scientifically. Work and rest time shall be reasonably arranged, anti-noise earplugs shall be worn and protection work shall be done.
- Form a good habit of protecting hearing. Minimize the time exposed to strong noise environment, such as amusement places, KTV, bars, etc.
- Avoid using headphones for a long time and pay attention to controlling the volume.
In addition, remember to protect your hearing and avoid unnecessary hearing damage caused by noise pollution. Don’t stay up late. You can change your headphones into earplugs when you sleep, so you can sleep more comfortably.
At the same time, we should also avoid alcohol and drug abuse.
