THREE MAIN TYPES OF HEARING LOSS
Conductive hearing loss
This happens when sound waves have difficulty traveling from the outer ear to the inner ear, often due to earwax buildup, ear infection, or a punctured eardrum.
Sensorineural hearing loss
This is the most common type and affects the inner ear or the auditory nerve. It can be caused by aging, noise exposure, genetics, or certain medications.
Mixed hearing loss
This is a combination of conductive and sensorineural hearing loss. It can happen when there are problems in both the outer/middle ear and the inner ear/auditory nerve.
