Do Sound Conditioners Cause Hearing Loss?

I’ve heard that sleep machines our sound conditioners can cause hearing loss due to the constant sound. Is this true?

My 14 yr. son was diagnosed with mono 2 mnths ago ,with the high fever and swollen lymph nodes. We discovered today that he has significant hearing loss in both ears. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem?

I have my first audiology appointment on the 4th and I’m nervous about hearing what I’ve already known all along. The nature of my job required that I use headphones, so I know it’s becaue of that, and I will get compensated accordingly, but I wonder if my hearing loss will only get worse, or if it will stay at what it is. What kind of hearing aid did you use? Any suggestions for the future? (I don’t listen to loud music, in fact, I prefer silence =)

Sometimes I kinda cup my arm/hand while showering to get water to rinse my ears but once in a whle a little jet/stream from the shower head aims into an ear and obviously it’s loud and feels a bit like water. Does that when it happens a few times cause damage/hearing loss or am I fine?

I would like to ask does excessive listening to ipod earbuds or with medium volume, slightly higher than the minimum 60db, make you loss your hearing? or make your ear hurt?
i mean i notice this morning my ear hurts a little, though not ringing. I don’t know if this is because i listened to ipod earbuds 3-4 hours a day.
how may i know if i am having noise hearing loss to my ear?
thanks in advance
