She explains how no two people’s ears will react in the same way when exposed to extremely loud sounds, such as fireworks or live music. While one person may not experience any problems, another may have permanently damaged their hearing. Dr. Fisher makes it clear, however, even if you don’t experience immediate pain to the ears, damage has indeed happened and is cumulative, so be sure to wear proper ear protection. She later highlights the topic of hearing aids and shares the importance of switching to rechargeable hearing aids from ones that need batteries. Later, she takes your hearing health questions.
