Rechargeable Digital Hearing Aids for Seniors

It's important to note that there is an adjustment period when wearing new hearing devices, even if you've worn some type of hearing aids for many years. If you're a newcomer, a Personal Sound Amplification Product (PSAP) may feel a bit odd at first on or in your ears. However, give yourself time – your brain is just getting reacquainted with these new sounds.

One common issue with hearing devices is whistling, which can occur if the instrument is turned on but not securely seated in your ear. This is normal, and the whistling will stop once the device is properly positioned. Other causes of whistling include a blockage of earwax, a damaged ear piece or tubing, or excessive volume. To stop the whistling, you can try reducing the volume, securely positioning the instrument in your ear, clearing your ear canal of wax or debris, or changing the ear piece or tubing.

Whistling is a common phenomenon for small amplifiers and is known as "feedback." It's caused by the amplified sound from the hearing aid getting back to the microphone and being re-amplified. Here are some tips to help reduce the occurrence of feedback whistling:

1. Reduce the volume before inserting the instrument in your ear.
2. Make sure the hearing aid is properly seated in your ear.
3. Check your ear canal for wax or debris and clear it with help if necessary.
4. Change the ear piece or tubing if needed.

Wearing hearing aids can provide numerous benefits, such as the ability to carry on conversations without straining or constantly asking others to repeat themselves. Muffled voices will become clear, and you'll be able to enjoy music, TV, and phone calls with better sound quality and clarity. Even in group conversations with multiple voices and tones, you'll be able to engage in crystal-clear discussions with your friends and family.

Hearing aids can also provide relief for tinnitus, as the amplified sounds around you can "mask" the ringing caused by this condition. However, if your hearing aids are whistling or not producing any sound, there are several common troubleshooting steps you can take, such as checking the battery, cleaning the ear domes and wax guards, and ensuring proper alignment with the charging port.

By properly caring for and maintaining your hearing aids, you can ensure they continue to provide you with the best possible auditory experience. Regular cleaning, charging, and vigilance for any issues can help you get the most out of your device and enjoy the many benefits of improved hearing.
