Question
Dear doctor, a parent reported that their child is unable to hear conversational sounds. Upon examination, it was found that the child has a hearing loss of 75dB. How should this condition be treated?
Answer
Treating hearing loss of 75dB is quite challenging as recovery is difficult. The treatment plan depends on the recovery situation and may involve medications such as brain activators and omega-3 acids. Firstly, a detailed examination should be conducted to determine the cause of the hearing loss and consider whether surgical treatment is necessary. Additionally, it is recommended to start learning to speak early, avoid long-term exposure to noisy environments, and reduce prolonged use of headphones. If hearing continues to decline, immediate medical attention or a visit to an audiologist for assessment is advised. Based on the severity of the hearing loss, the doctor will decide on the appropriate intervention measures.
