What's happening
You might slowly lose some hearing in both ears. For example, you may have trouble hearing high-pitched sounds or following a conversation in a crowded room.
What you can do
To help keep your ears healthy:
- Get regular checkups. Follow your healthcare professional's advice about hearing aids and other corrective devices.
- Take precautions. Turn down the sound on your devices. And use earplugs when you're around loud machinery or other loud noises.
