S03_E05 - Listen up! We're talking to an Audiologist...
The Stapes! Tinnitus! Ear Wax!
Approximately 20% of the worldwide population suffers from hearing loss (and around 100% suffer from ear wax... Eeeew). But what can be done to protect our hearing? Is hearing loss permanent? What's that ringing in my ears? And why do we have earwax to begin with?
When it comes to your ears and your hearing, there's a lot to know, so we thought it'd be a good idea to have an in-depth conversation with Hennepin Healthcare Audiologist, Dr. Janet Hansen. She's an expert in the field of hearing and will help us get a better understanding of our ears, our hearing, and what can be done when things go awry. Join us and learn about the bummer that is tinnitus, our hearing thresholds, and a common New York Times Crossword Puzzle clue that stumps so many of us... Check it out!
Here are some helpful resources that we discussed in the episode if you want to learn more:
- American Academy of Audiology
- ASHA: American Speech-Language-Hearing Association
