How to save hearing after tinnitus and deafness in the elderly? Chinese otolaryngology experts came to help.

"When people get old, their ears don't work well." In life, we often hear old people say this. Tinnitus and deafness has become a serious problem for the elderly, which seriously affects the quality of life of middle-aged and elderly people and is an important factor hindering family harmony and happiness.

Tinnitus and deafness have become

The "killer" who threatens the hearing of the elderly in their later years

There are a large number of tinnitus, ear pus and hearing loss in the elderly, and it is not uncommon for deaf patients to delay treatment. Director Keyong Li, a senior expert, believes that tinnitus and deafness in the elderly are related to brain atrophy, Alzheimer's disease and other diseases. Old people with hearing loss can't accept the stimulation of sound signals for a long time, and the ability of auditory system, including auditory pathway, to process sound information will soon decline, which will aggravate the degree of tinnitus and deafness, reduce communication and accelerate people's mental aging. Old people will become withdrawn, stupid and dull, and their communication skills will decline, which will greatly affect their quality of life. Therefore, patients with tinnitus and deafness must be intervened and treated as soon as possible.

What about tinnitus and deafness in the elderly?

Chinese otolaryngology experts came to help.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that tinnitus and deafness are mainly caused by the functional decline of spleen, stomach, liver and kidney, and the imbalance of qi movement, which leads to the fact that the Yang Can of clearing qi does not reach the head, the turbid qi is disturbed, the brain meridians are blocked, the auditory nerve is damaged, and the human sensory system is disordered. Therefore, in order to cure tinnitus and deafness radically, it is necessary to repair the ear nerve, adjust and restore the function of human viscera, and treat both the symptoms and root causes.

Director Ding Hongtao, an expert in otorhinolaryngology of traditional Chinese medicine, said that the comprehensive treatment of tinnitus and deafness in the elderly with the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine is based on inheriting the essence of traditional Chinese medicine and flexibly using characteristic Chinese medicine and unique acupuncture techniques. Through the three-step principle of "dredging channels and collaterals, regulating viscera and repairing hearing", the blood circulation in the ear is improved and the necrotic auditory nerve cells are repaired, aiming at establishing the "balance" of auditory perception, eliminating tinnitus and improving hearing.
