hearing ad - #13964

Rohan

I am really confused and kinda stressed about my hearing ad. A few weeks ago, I started to notice this persistent ringing in my ears, like a really annoying high-pitched sound that just won't go away. I figured it was just temporary, but then friends began saying I was turning the TV up too loud and I caught myself asking people to repeat things all the time. I got an appointment with an ENT who did a hearing test and said I have some mild hearing loss! I was in shock, like how could this happen? I mean, I always thought I had good hearing. He mentioned something about a hearing ad and recommended I look into it, but I honestly have no clue what that even means. Do I need one? Like, how would I even go about getting a hearing ad? What are the options? And I keep hearing that they can be super expensive. Is that true? Is there any chance this ringing will go away on its own, or should I just assume I'm gonna need a hearing ad soon? It’s all kinda overwhelming and im just looking for some guidance here so that I can make the right decision. Any advice would really help, thanks!
