March 3 is World Hearing Day. It is held to raise awareness on how to prevent deafness and hearing loss and promote ear and hearing care across the world.

Here are some easy ways to take care of our ears

Reduce volume- Listening to loud music can damage your hearing.
Wear Earplugs Around Loud Noises- Being exposed to loud noises on a regular basis can gradually lead to hearing loss.
Use over-the-ear headphones instead of earbuds- Place more distance between your eardrums and noise from portable devices.
Stop Using Cotton Swabs- Cotton swabs can push your earwax deeper into the ear canal to damage the eardrum and ear canal.
Keep Your Ears Dry- Water entering your ear canal especially for a long period can be risky for your hearing and ear health.

What are treatments for hearing loss?

Removal of earwax from the ear canal - in those whose hearing is being affected by earwax blockage
Hearing aids - in those whose hearing is caused by damage to the inner ear
Surgery - in those whose hearing loss is caused by abnormalities in the eardrum or ear bones
