I remember my dad getting his hearing aids & being startled badly by how loud my brother & I had had to speak so he could hear us. I’ve had hearing aids for about 13 yrs now. I’ve had constant tinnitus for so long, I can tune it out; the hearing aids don’t block it but if I’m listening to something, my brain tunes the ringing out. For some reason, though, my mother -despite living with my almost deaf dad, knowing his almost deaf father & totally deaf aunt- still thinks I can hear her when she talks behind me or if she whispers. Why do you whisper, m’am? I can’t hear you and Dad can’t hear you at all anyway, just speak normally!

I have some moderate tinnitus too and made the same discovery as you when I was well over 50. There isn't really much you can do unless you already qualify for hearing aids (10:50 onwards). I was told there are special pillows that make a regular low-key noise (can be configured) for bed, if you can't fall asleep because your tinnitus keeps you awake. My tinnitus rarely is too loud for me to fall asleep, but when it is, I select a brown-noise YT video, or, what I like even more, a video with sounds of sea waves. During the day, having low background music helps me. I have found, however, that the best way to cope with my tinnitus is to become friends with it. I treat it like a mildly annoying cute puppy that won't leave me alone 🙂 Whether that approach works for you is very much dependent on the tinnitus and your patience.

Great information. I've unfortunately had to learn about the inner ear due to vertigo, and some speech therapy I had as a kid. I wish I had done more with the speech therapy, but I guess I did something right because I can tell when I get tired I am really hard to understand. I assume that means I am trying harder with full energy. This is a good reminder to try even harder.

In elementary school there was a girl that would go around the playground and scream as loud and high as she could in people’s ears. I was her victim one day, and I lost some hearing in my right ear. I can barely hear people if they’re on my right side :(

that's actually very tragic that girl should be disciplined
@Johnny-ci8mw2 жыл бұрын
@@bennytennyson She probably was eventually. It was pretty clear that the girl had special needs, so it was probably tough for teachers to understand how to discipline her. It was a few decades ago so there wasn’t as much awareness.

I think I have difficulty filtering the noise, but also my ears are sensitive. Some days I put in earplugs to cut the noise, but I notice that it becomes super easy to understand people, even when they are being quieter than normal. ._.

Really interesting info... I have tinnitus and it can really affect your quality of life. Can you guys make a video with an endometriosis expert? There is so much misinformation out there about it, making it so hard to get good treatment. Some of the experts in the US include Dr Sinervo, Dr Arrington, Dr Albee, Dr Nezhat, Dr Vidali, Dr Mitroi, Dr Redwine, amongst others.

When I’ve had ear infections on planes, the pressure makes my body feel squirmy and my leg starts kicking. Like, the feeling is so uncomfortable I just start squirming around a little, and I feel so bad for the people sitting near me. They don’t seem to ever believe me either lmao.

You don't have to go to a specialist to get ear wax removed. Go to your GP/PCP. Medical assistants can perform a warm water flush. Fast, easy, and likely cheaper.

I straighten a paper clip but keeping a tight U shape at one end and use it to remove excess ear wax, taking care never to stick it in too deep. Cue tips are just to remove moisture at the very outer edge of the ear canal, it shouldn't go in past the cotton.

Like she says at 5:10 I watched this video with my hearing aids connected to the Bluetooth on my computer! Having hearing aids with bluetooth is seriously the best thing ever because it even amplifies the frequencies I have trouble hearing when in the past I had to take out my hearing aids to use headphones that didn't, so now listening to music is so much clearer and I can actually do phone calls now.

7:40 A decibell is actually the tenth of a Bel, we just use decibel more, like we use kilogram more than gram. Fun fact about Bells and decibel: its a logarithemic scale, not a linear one! This is because thats how we precieve loudness. Bels and decibels aren't exclusive to sound too. You can use them to tranaform any meqsurment into a logarithmic scale

Being a first year resident of ENT. all I've done done in last couple weeks is cleaning people's ears. This is what we do. If it's soft wax. We take a Q-tip like thing, and we clean the ear as far as we can SEE. Whatever we can't see. We don't blindly put anything in there. Eardrum is just 3 cells thick(oversimplified), and can get damaged very easily. If it's hard wax, we prescribe wax softening ear drops for a week, then remove the wax by syringing. Which is. Using a 10ml syringe, without the needle, to push water inside the ear vigorously, so that wax comes out along with water. If it doesn't come out, another week of eardrops and repeat. My favourite part is. Seeing the kids cray while seeing a huge syringe, And me squirting water on their hand to make them see what it is, And them suddenly stop crying...
