Extractions: giving columnist questions Dr Earos mailing list contact us search sitemap Anyone who starts to suffer from tinnitus or suspects their hearing is damaged, should make an appointment to see their family doctor immediately. Usually, the doctor will refer the patient to an audiologist or Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) unit. Here a specialist will be able to rule out more serious middle ear problems and conduct a hearing test to determine whether the problem is linked to a hearing loss. Although tinnitus has no simple 'cure', there are strategies for reducing its impact. Noise generators For most people, tinnitus is no more than a slight annoyance when there is sufficient background noise. For those with mild tinnitus, everyday sounds may mask the tinnitus during the daytime, making it either easier to deal with or completely inaudible. However, tinnitus can become a real problem during quiet times of day, such as before sleep. Many people find relief by adding an external competing sound at a constant low level. Radio static, the television or the hum of a fan might all help to distract from the internal sounds of the tinnitus. Products are also available which will generate white noise specifically to mask the sound of tinnitus, including small speakers which can be placed below the pillow. Behind-the-ear 'white noise' generators (similar to hearing aids in appearance) which produce a low-level hissing are also widely used and are available through the NHS.

Genetics Of Deafness In Dogs
Genetics of deafness in Dogs. deafness may have been longestablished in a breed but kept hidden from outsiders to protect reputations.
http://www.lsu.edu/deafness/genetics.htm

Extractions: Congenital deafness in dogs (or other animals) can be acquired [caused by intrauterine infections, ototoxic drugs like gentamicin, liver disorders, or other toxic exposures before or soon after birth] or inherited. Inherited deafness can be caused by a gene defect that is autosomal dominant, recessive, sex-linked, or may involve multiple genes (more on this later). It is usually impossible to determine the cause of congenital deafness unless a clear problem has been observed in the breed, or carefully planned breedings are performed. In this article I will discuss what is currently known about the genetics of deafness in dogs so that breeders can make the best informed decisions possible when attempting to reduce or eliminate deafness. Congenital deafness has been reported for approximately 80 breeds, with the list growing at a regular rate (see list The prevalence of congenital deafness in different breeds is seldom known because of the limited number of studies (see table list ). It should be noted that a unilaterally deaf dog can be as great a genetic risk for transmission of deafness to its offspring as is a bilaterally deaf dog.

BBC NEWS | Health | Medical Notes | Single Sided Deafness
The BBC offer information on the condition, causes, and treatment options.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/medical_notes/2988972.stm

Extractions: Deafness in one ear can be a major problem Single Sided Deafness (SSD) is the complete hearing loss in one ear. It is thought to affect at least 9,000 new people in the UK each year, with the most common cause being sudden deafness. For many people, SSD has a particularly disabling and debilitating impact on work, home and social interaction. Despite treatment options being available, many patients do not receive treatments owing to a lack of GP and public awareness of this condition. What is Single Sided Deafness? SSD, or unilateral hearing loss, refers to total hearing loss in one ear - the other ear can have perfect hearing. It occurs when sounds cannot reach the working inner ear (cochlea). It is estimated that over 9,000 new cases are diagnosed every year, indicating that at any one time tens of thousands of Britons are affected by this condition. What are the symptoms?
