When is it necessary to customize hearing

When is it necessary to customize hearing aids?

If the hearing aid is not properly calibrated, the user may encounter unpleasant side effects that make it difficult to use. In the following situations, Dr. Zhanneta Shapiro advises that the hearing aid customization be redone:

• Change in Hearing impairment or improvement of hearing
• Strong background noises causing rapid fatigue and headaches
• Change in audibility
• Inability to make out speech in an environment close to ideal (one speaker in a quiet environment)
• The appearance of crackling, clicks, and other noises
• Installing a new earmold
• These effects are similar to the experience of using a hearing aid in the first month. However, they are more pronounced. The daily use of unconfigured devices is exhausting to a person mentally and physically. Further use of the hearing aid isn’t possible in this case.
