Is There A Cure For Damaged Ear Speaker? Reduction In Volume Threshold, Distortion To Much Lower Sounds. How Can This Be Treated?
Is there a cure for broken speaker ear? My ears are damaged and anytime I m around any loud noise my ears distort and sound like a broken speaker. I ve had this problem for years and consulted ear specialists but no one knew my condition and were no help. As my years progressed with this problem my volume threshold keeps dropping and my ears distort to much lower sounds than I used to be able to withstand. If anyone can help i would be so grateful. Thank you.

Hello!!
From the way you have described about your hearing it is likely that there is damage to the nerve for hearing. The best way to evaluate it by doing a audiometry which will determine the degree of loss. Visit a Otologist who will diagnose and treat you with appropriate aids if necessary.
I hope you found my response to be helpful and informative. If you have any additional concerns I would be happy to address them.
