Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can you self-refer to an audiologist?
Yes, you can often self-refer to an audiologist without needing a referral from a primary care physician. However, in the state of Michigan, insurances require an order from a PCP doctor for us to be able to bill out testing.
If you have concerns about your hearing, tinnitus, or balance, you can schedule an appointment directly with an audiologist for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate care. Audiologists specialize in diagnosing and treating hearing and balance issues. Check with your local audiologist for specific requirements, as regulations may vary by location. Inman Audiology provides expert hearing care services in Troy, MI, and nearby locations.
Q. How can I tell if my hearing is bad?
Signs of potential hearing loss include difficulty understanding conversations, frequently asking others to repeat themselves, needing to turn up the volume on the TV or radio, or experiencing ringing in the ears (tinnitus). You may also find it challenging to hear high-pitched sounds or have trouble following discussions in noisy environments. If you notice these symptoms, it’s advisable to seek a hearing evaluation from an audiologist to assess your hearing and explore potential solutions.
Q. How can you get rid of tinnitus?
Getting rid of tinnitus entirely can be challenging, but various strategies can help manage and alleviate its impact. These include:
- Identifying and addressing underlying causes, such as earwax blockages, medical conditions, or medication side effects.
- Sound therapy: Using white noise machines, hearing aids, or background sounds to mask the tinnitus.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps individuals manage the emotional distress associated with tinnitus.
- Relaxation techniques: Techniques like yoga, meditation, and deep breathing can reduce stress, which may exacerbate tinnitus.
- Avoid loud noises and protect your ears from further damage.
It’s essential to consult an audiologist for a thorough evaluation and guidance on the most suitable tinnitus management options for your specific situation.
Q. Is a hearing aid dispenser the same as an audiologist?
No, a hearing aid dispenser is not the same as an audiologist.
Audiologists are licensed professionals with advanced degrees (usually Doctor of Audiology or Master’s degree) who are trained to diagnose, assess, and treat various hearing and balance issues. Audiologists provide a wide range of hearing healthcare services, including hearing evaluations, rehabilitation, and medical referrals if necessary.
Hearing aid dispensers, on the other hand, are typically trained to fit and dispense hearing aids but may not have the same level of expertise or scope of practice as audiologists. If you need to consult with an audiologist in Troy, MI, please contact Inman Audiology for an appointment.
Q. What are the three types of hearing loss?
The three primary types of hearing loss are:
Sensorineural Hearing Loss: This type results from damage to the inner ear or the auditory nerve and is often permanent. It can be caused by age, noise exposure, genetic factors, or certain medical conditions.
Conductive Hearing Loss: This type is due to problems in the outer or middle ear, such as earwax blockages, ear infections, or structural issues. Conductive hearing loss is often treatable with medical or surgical interventions.
Mixed Hearing Loss: This type combines elements of both sensorineural and conductive hearing loss, resulting from issues in both the inner and middle ear. Treatment options depend on the specific causes involved.
