Hearing is essential for young children to learn speech, master the overall learning skills, play and develop social skills. In most developed countries, hearing tests are conducted immediately after birth. Otherwise, parents are usually the first people to notice the hearing impairment of young children. Hearing loss has three types of conductivity due to the pathology of the middle ear. Sensory movement caused by the auditory nerve dysfunction, sensory hair outside the cochlea (inner ear) or the center of the auditory brain; mixed type including both conductive and emotional lesions.
Children's hearing loss may exist at birth and may occur due to congenital infection, toxic drugs ingested during pregnancy, complications at birth, nervous system diseases, genetic diseases, or a strong family history Yes. Hearing impairment may result from otitis media, other infectious diseases, ototoxic drugs, sudden excessive noise, and being exposed to trauma. Treatment of hearing loss due to otitis media is usually due to medicinal products, in severe cases it is due to grommet insertion. Mild to moderate sensory hearing loss is treated using a hearing aid that can be worn by a 3 - month - old infant. In modern medicine systems, there are currently no medicines for this. Serious sensory hearing loss is treated with a surgical cochlear implant.
Ayurveda treatment can be used very effectively to treat this condition well. Hearing loss due to otitis media gives medicine to alleviate allergies, inflammation, infections, and sediments. After symptomatic relief, further measures are taken to prevent recurrence frequency. Unlike adults, children usually do not cause permanent damage to the middle ear structures such as ossification (hardening) of the bone connecting the ear drum to the inner ear. The outcome of treatment is quite before, hearing recovers normally in the majority of affected children.
In the sensory nerve type, Ayurvedic treatment is given to provide nutrition, repair injury to the ear, and strengthen the auditory nerve and the center of the auditory brain. This treatment is very safe for long-term administration of children over 6 months. Currently, in modern medicine, dysfunction of sensory hair on the outside of the cochlea is one of the most common causes of sensorineural hearing loss and we believe that damaged hair can not be repaired or regenerated once. The exact mode of action of Ayurvedic medicine is currently unknown. However, there are typically 15-25% hearing benefits in 4-6 months of routine treatment that can be objectively confirmed in the voice metric test. Approximately 10 to 12 months of Ayurveda treatment gives about 40 to 60% hearing improvement.
It is important to note that individuals treated with both adults and children are subject to the same environmental, occupational, and lifestyle deterioration factors as hearing loss faced by normal people. These include infections, toxic drugs, toxicity due to contamination, stress, trauma, exposure to excessive sounds suddenly or for a long time, and music. Therefore, all individuals need to be careful to avoid or minimize such deterioration or risk factors as much as possible.
