Hearing allows you to have meaningful conversations and experience the world around you. A solid sense of balance helps you feel steady and confident when you move. When they’re in good working order, your ears provide what you need for both hearing and balance.
Hearing impairment can chip away at your self-confidence, affect how well you communicate and make life less enjoyable. Likewise, dizziness and balance problems can make it more likely that you'll fall and get seriously injured, and keep you from leaving your home. Mayo Clinic on Hearing and Balance is here to help you live your life to the fullest.
