Activities that are Good for Hearing Health

As we age, hearing loss begins to occur. In addition to taking necessary medical measures, what recreational activities can we take in daily life to help our hearing health?

Activities that are good for hearing health:

Exercise the whole body: Maintain good blood circulation and reduce blood supply problems in the ears. You can take appropriate aerobic exercises such as walking, swimming and cycling.

Ear massage: There are some acupuncture points around the ears. Proper ear massage can promote blood circulation in the ears, relax ear muscles, and help relieve stress. Some people also think that massaging the ears can relieve tinnitus symptoms.

Avoid noise: Avoid being in an overly noisy environment for a long time, or wearing earplugs in noisy places. Avoid frequent use of headphones or earplugs to listen to music for a long time, especially at high volume.

Keep the ear canal clean: Try to avoid water accumulation in the ear or ear canal inflammation, and keep the ear canal clean and dry. If you want to clean the ear canal, you can use the moist environment in the ear canal to remove earwax after taking a shower.

Balance training: Doing some activities that improve your sense of balance can help improve the function of your inner ear, such as Tai Chi and yoga.

Notes:

Quit smoking and limit alcohol: Smoking can cause poor blood circulation and damage the health of your ears, and excessive drinking can also have a negative impact on hearing.

Maintain a proper weight: Obesity is associated with a variety of health problems, including hearing damage, so maintaining a healthy weight helps maintain hearing.

For confirmed hearing loss, you can choose to wear otc hearing aids or prescription hearing aids depending on the situation. In the past, hearing aids were expensive, could not be charged, had a short working time, could not connect to Bluetooth, and had whistling. For these situations, the FDA-approved, inexpensive, professional over-the-counter self-fitting hearing aid Hearingsense 1, which looks like an ordinary earplug, can help you solve these problems.
