SILENT DANGER OF HEARING SHOULD TREAT QUICKLY TO PREVENT THE RISK OF DEMENTIA

SILENT DANGER : HEARING LOSS AND DEMENTIA

Hearing loss is common in older adults and may be associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia. Early detection and appropriate treatment can help support communication and overall quality of life.

Common Signs of Hearing Loss

• Turning up the TV volume
• Difficulty hearing in noisy places
• Asking others to speak louder
• Hearing sounds but having difficulty understanding words

Why Early Treatment Matters
Untreated hearing loss may lead to social isolation and reduced communication, which can affect mental and cognitive well-being.

If you notice changes in your hearing, consult an ENT specialist for a hearing evaluation and appropriate treatment.
