Do we hear normally ?

As we age, many of us experience hearing loss. Hearing loss can be recognised by ourselves through the following warning signs:

* Can hear, but can't understand

* Complain that people are mumbling/murmering

* Continuously asking others to repeat during conversation

* Prefer the TV or Radio to operate at high volume than for others

* Have difficulty with conversation in a noisy environment

* Avoiding group activity since listening is difficult

We should address ourselves whether we encounter any of these episodes, to ascertain our hearing efficiency. If the signs are positive, we should fix an appointment with the Audiologist !
