Getting used to your HA
Buying a hearing aid, bear in mind that it will take some time to get
used to new sounds and sensations . How much time this process will
take depends on the individual peculiarities of an organism, level
of hearing loss, time spent using the HA, etc . If you feel discomfort
while using the HA , you need to lower the volume or turn it off and
take a break .
While watching TV, set the volume to a medium level . If you have
a hard time distinguishing sounds, turn the volume up using the
volume control . However, you should remember that turning the
volume up very high doesn’t always improve your perception of
speech, but can cause sudden fatigue and provoke the deterioration
of hearing .
In a noisy environment it’s pretty hard to distinguish certain words,
so don’t be embarrassed to ask again .
