Many common occupations which millions of individuals partake in each and every day may be can cause serious hearing issues over time. My step father who works in construction and has built houses his entire life has used extremely loud machinery on a daily basis for over 30 years and his hearing has truly suffered from it. My mom and I noticed that he speaks significantly louder than the average person and he is constantly asking "what?" after someone says even the simplest thing to him. We came to the conclusion that from working so many years in a noisy environment, his hearing truly has suffered tremendously. <br /><br />-Lindsay MauserLindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00843399563238068329noreply@blogger.com
