A member asked:

The latest hearing aid for my daughter suffering hearing loss &she wear aids behind ears?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Smaller, customized: New behind-the-ears hearing aids are popular and easy to use. For a child, a consideration is how likely the child is to damage or lose a hearing aid, and how well the child can put it on, take it off, and use the features. The behind-the-ear portion is small now, and comes in various colors. Some have several frequencies to adjust like an mp3 or stereo. Some have bluetooth to connect a cellphone.

Good evening doctors. I had a hearing test, which showed mild hearing loss in BOTH ears. When I asked the ENT if I needed hearing aids, the ENT said no. With total respect to the ENT, why would hearing aids for mild hearing loss in both ears not help?
