Communication
The loss of hearing can cause difficulties in communication in a variety of ways. First, it can be difficult to understand what others are saying due to reduced sound clarity, which can lead to confusion and frustration. It can also be difficult to follow conversations in noisy environments, as well as to participate in conversations without the use of sign language or an assistive device. Additionally, the person may feel isolated or embarrassed due to their hearing impairment, leading to further communication difficulties.
Ability to speak
People with hearing loss may experience difficulty speaking or communicating. They may have difficulty understanding or responding to speech, or they may find it difficult to express themselves in conversation. Additionally, they may struggle to use non-verbal communication, such as facial expressions or body language, to express themselves. People with hearing loss may also experience social isolation, due to the lack of communication or difficulty with communication.
Vulnerability to danger
People with hearing difficulties may be at an increased risk of danger due to their limited ability to hear potential warnings or sounds of danger. They may not be able to hear alarms, sirens, cries for help, or other warning signs. This could place them in dangerous and potentially life-threatening situations. People with hearing loss may also be more vulnerable to verbal threats and intimidation, as they may not be able to clearly understand what is being said. Additionally, they may not be able to communicate effectively with people in order to ask for help in an emergency situation.
