Hearing Loss
Frequently Asked Questions
9. How can I prevent infections that cause
hearing loss?
Washing your hands frequently can help prevent upper respiratory
infections, which can lead to an ear infection called otitis media.
Otitis media is a cause of long-term hearing loss. Also, get a flu
shot every year to stave off flu-related ear infections. If you
still get an ear infection, see a doctor immediately before it
becomes more serious.
