  Ageing, infections, and medications are three major factors influencing hearing health. Understanding their impact allows you to take preventive action and seek timely treatment. Here's why.

The article from Moneycontrol discusses various common ear problems and their solutions, focusing on how aging, infections, and medications can impact hearing health. It explains that as people age, they might experience presbycusis, a gradual loss of hearing due to the natural degeneration of inner ear structures. Infections like otitis media (middle ear infection) can lead to temporary or permanent hearing loss if not treated properly. Medications, particularly ototoxic drugs such as certain antibiotics, chemotherapy agents, and high doses of aspirin, can also damage hearing. The article suggests preventive measures like avoiding loud noise, managing ear infections promptly, and being cautious with medication use. Solutions include hearing aids for age-related hearing loss, antibiotics for infections, and in some cases, surgical interventions. It also emphasizes the importance of regular check-ups and maintaining ear hygiene to prevent complications.
