Around 11 million people in the UK are believed to have some sort of hearing problem. Experts have identified six signs to see if you are one of them.
They have also given details of a simple test which can help you decide if you need to see a doctor. The three-minute online hearing test tool has been developed in collaboration with Charlotte Thunberg Jespersen, Director of Audiology Development at ReSound, and MA Speech and Hearing Science, University of Copenhagen, reports WalesOnline.
When hearing loss is treated, it not only improves the health of the person suffering from it but it can also help those around them, having a positive effect on their social relationships and love life. So if you recognise a number of these signs in yourself or a loved one, it’s time to seek the help of a professional audiologist.
