Behind-the-ear hearing aids are recommended for users with hearing loss with chronic otitis media because they are designed to be open to help keep the ear canal ventilated and reduce the risk of infection.
In contrast, in-the-ear hearing aids, although they can accurately match the contours of the patient's ear canal for better sound isolation and wearing stability, their more closed structure may affect the natural ventilation of the ear canal. Therefore, when choosing OTC in-the-ear hearing aids, users should be cautious and fully consider their own ear canal health and wearing comfort to avoid increasing the burden or discomfort of the ear canal due to long-term wear.
In addition, to ensure that the hearing aid is always performing at its best, it is recommended that the user have regular follow-up check-ups for hearing conditions and adjust the hearing aid settings in a timely manner based on the results. This process not only helps to maintain a high match between the hearing aid and the user's hearing needs, but also identifies and resolves potential wearing problems in a timely manner, providing patients with more accurate and personalized hearing support.
