What are the symptoms?
  • Hearing loss that slowly gets worse
  • Most commonly affect adults in their 30-40’s

What’s going on behind the scenes?
This is a type of conductive hearing loss where one of the bones in the middle ear (stapes/stirrup) loses its ability to transmit sound to the inner part of the ear.
How Tucson ENT can help
Otosclerosis can sometimes be overcome with hearing aids or surgery using a laser to puncture the troublesome bone and placement of an implant
