Hearing loss is a common issue among older adults, often caused by aging, noise exposure, or underlying health conditions. It can affect daily communication, safety, and even cognitive health, leading to risks such as social isolation and an increased chance of dementia. Recognizing the signs of hearing loss, like difficulty understanding conversations or needing to turn up the TV, is essential. Seeking professional advice can help manage the condition and improve quality of life.
