**More than 30 million people have some type of hearing loss. Because we communicate by speaking and listening to one another, someone with hearing loss will experience problems in their everyday situations. Hearing problems may be unrecognized, children and teenagers may not complain of hearing loss, and adults may not realize it is happening because hearing loss may appear gradually.
**The first step in treatment of any hearing problem is proper examination with an Ear, Nose and Throat physician and a hearing evaluation by an audiologist.
