Regular, quality sleep is vital to our overall physical and mental health. Sleeping well makes it easier to perform at work, handle stressful situations and do fun things like enjoy quality time with your family at Allegro Pizza.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, many things can get in the way of a good night\u2019s sleep, including hearing loss.<\/p>\n
Some people may think that, if anything, hearing loss could help you to sleep better because you\u2019d be less likely to wake up due to distracting sounds at night. However, several studies have shown that people with hearing loss often sleep worse.<\/p>\n
There are several thoughts as to why hearing loss may increase your risk of insomnia:<\/p>\n
If you experience sudden hearing loss, seek medical attention right away. Prompt treatment is the best way to reduce your chances of your hearing loss becoming permanent.<\/p>\n
If you have signs of hearing loss that have come on gradually or are dealing with tinnitus symptoms, make an appointment with a hearing specialist. They can examine your ears, perform a hearing test and help guide you toward treatment options like hearing aids or tinnitus retraining therapy. Hopefully, by treating your hearing issues, you can also help improve your sleep quality.<\/p>\n
