It is not only older men and women who suffer from hearing problems. The problem is also relevant for young people.

Otolaryngologist Elena Baibakova spoke in more detail about what exactly negatively affects hearing, writes Lenta.ru .

As the specialist noted, one of the most common reasons is listening to loud music through headphones.

Earwax also impairs hearing. You cannot remove it yourself; you need the help of specialists.

Incorrect cleaning can cause hearing loss or noise effects. For example, if a person uses something sharp and tries to get deeper into the ear, this is a big mistake. It is better to use a napkin or towel wrapped around the little finger to clean the ears.

In addition, otitis and otosclerosis lead to the problem.

Few people know, but herpes also provokes additional problems that affect the quality of hearing.

If a person often suffers from cold sores, has hypothermia or some stress factor, then immunity decreases, and the virus can also affect the auditory nerve. As a result, hearing decreases.
