Mixed conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, bilateral - what does this mean
Mixed conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, bilateral is a type of hearing loss caused by damage to both the outer and inner ear. it is a combination of damage to the middle and inner ear, resulting in a reduction in sound transmission through the ear canal and a reduction in sound processing in the inner ear. the damage can be caused by a variety of issues, including infection, trauma, genetics, and aging.
What happens during the disease - mixed conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, bilateral
Mixed conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, bilateral is a condition in which both ears experience a combination of a conductive hearing loss due to a mechanical problem in the ear, and a sensorineural hearing loss due to damage to the inner ear or the auditory nerve. the causes of this condition can vary, but often include infections, trauma, or congenital defects. the conductive hearing loss can be caused by issues such as a buildup of earwax, fluid in the middle ear, or a perforated eardrum, while the sensorineural hearing loss can be caused by damage to the tiny hair cells in the inner ear or the auditory nerve.
