Hearing Tests 

Hearing may be affected if sounds don’t reach the inner ear efficiently known as conductive hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss can be caused by problems such as a blockage in your ear canal ex wax or in the middle ear . An infection of your outer ear or middle may also be responsible.Hearing loss of this type is often temporary and reversible. If sounds reach the inner ear but are still not heard, the fault lies in the inner ear or, rarely, in the hearing nerve. This is called sensori-neural hearing loss. Inner ear hearing loss may occur for a number of reasons, most commonly as a result of age-related change. Inner ear hearing loss is nearly always permanent.
