A member asked:
I have severe burning in both ear canals. i have recently started wearing in the ear hearing aids. is this a common problem and should i see a gp ?

Fitting: I don't know what exactly is causing the burning in your ear canals, but hearing aids must be properly fit before wearing them. Not all dispensers of hearing aids take the time required to do this properly, and sometimes a licensed audiologist may be needed for this purpose.
