Spotting the Signs of Hearing Loss
Hearing loss often happens gradually, and many people don’t realise it until it starts affecting daily life. Being aware of the common symptoms can help you take early action—for yourself or a loved one.
Common signs to watch for:
- Difficulty hearing people clearly
- Struggling to follow phone conversations
- Trouble understanding speech in noisy places
- Frequently asking others to repeat themselves
- Turning the TV or radio up louder than usual
- Avoiding conversations or social settings
- Feeling reluctant or anxious about socialising
If any of these sound familiar, it may be time to book a hearing check.
Preventing Hearing Loss
While some hearing decline is a natural part of ageing, there are simple ways to reduce the risk and protect your hearing long-term:
- Limit loud noise exposure – Use ear protection if you're in a noisy environment.
- Watch your volume – Keep headphone and earbud volumes at safe levels.
- Use earplugs or earmuffs – Especially at concerts, sports events, or when using loud tools.
- Choose quieter options – Opt for low-noise appliances and quieter activities when possible.
- Have regular hearing checks – Early detection leads to better outcomes.
