The Hearing Dangers of Smoking and Vaping
🚭👂 Smoking and vaping aren't just bad for your lungs — they're also harmful to your hearing! Smoking and vaping can wreak havoc on your blood pressure, which can then make it harder for your inner ear to process sound. Secondhand smoke isn't safe, either. Kids exposed to it have a higher risk of hearing loss and ear infections. Plus, e-cigarettes? They're far from a safe alternative. Nicotine, found in both regular and electric cigarettes, toys with your brain’s ability to process sound, potentially leading to issues like tinnitus. Quitting smoking and vaping now will lead to better hearing health in the future!

🌼🌷Are seasonal allergies leaving your entire head feeling stuffed up 🤧, and you’re struggling to hear clearly? Congestion 👃might not be the only culprit. Allergens like pollen 🐝land in your ear and can trigger a cascade of reactions in your body! This dusty invader can start the typical excess mucus production 😢, but histamines also kick into high gear and try to remove the allergen — causing inflammation, itching, and possibly swelling. This can lead to blockages in your ears, causing discomfort and even hearing loss. If this happens to you, see your allergist or PCP 🥼, and if you’re still have hearing loss 👂 after your allergies have been cleared up, THAT is the time to see your local expert audiologist. Learn more about how allergies can affect your hearing in our blog post: https://bit.ly/4bN4qm6 #HearingLoss #HearingLossAwareness #hearing #HearingHealth #HearingCare #HearingAid #health #AllergiesGotMeLike #Allergies

🤔 Ever wake up to find your ears feeling wet? 🌊Not to worry! Your ears are self-cleaning champs, using earwax to trap dust, moisturize, and fight off infection. If you’re seeing extra earwax exiting your ear, you might just naturally produce a lot of earwax. Before you reach for those cotton swabs☁️👂, here's the scoop — overcleaning can cause more harm 💥 than good. When you put something in your ear, your ear tries to protect itself from irritation or infection by producing extra wax. If you feel you have “too much” earwax, here are some do’s and don’ts: DON’T: 🕯️👂 Use ear candles ☁️👂 Use cotton swabs DO: 🫧 👂 Clean your outer ear 💧 👂 Try over-the-counter earwax-softening drops (unless you even suspect you have a perforated eardrum). 🩺 👂 See an expert audiologist Working like a self-cleaning oven, earwax is essential 🛀🏿💦👂 and caring for your ears safely is key. A wrong move can damage your eardrum👂🥁. Prioritize your ear health and see earwax for the helper that it is! #EarCare #SelfCleaningEars #HearingLoss #HearingLossAwareness #hearing #HearingHealth #HearingCare #HearingAid #health

Ear cleaning: leave it to the professionals.
Many people think they need to clean out their own earwax, but is it necessary? 🛁 Generally, ears are self-cleaning, and for most of us, cleaning out our ears is unnecessary.
