Side Effects of Hearing 
Aid-
You Should Know
04
Hearing aids are invaluable devices that significantly improve 
the quality of life for those with hearing loss. However, like any 
device, they can come with certain side effects, especially 
during the initial adjustment phase. 
There is some common side effects and tips, you should 
know about hearing aids: 
Common Side Effects of Hearing 
Aids
Headaches: Headaches are a common experience when beginning to 
wear hearing aids. The increased sensory input and amplified sounds 
can feel overwhelming, leading to sensory fatigue or mild headaches. 
This is typically due to the brain’s adjustment to new auditory stimuli, 
and it often diminishes with consistent use. 
Dizziness: For individuals with inner ear issues, hearing aids can 
sometimes trigger dizziness or balance problems. The inner ear plays a 
crucial role in both hearing and balance, so sensory overload in cases of 
profound hearing loss can lead to mild disorientation.
Ear Pain and Infections: Ear pain can arise if hearing aids don’t fit 
correctly or if they create excess moisture in the ear canal, 
potentially leading to infections. Wearing hearing aids for prolonged 
periods without proper cleaning can also increase the risk of ear 
infections.
Reduced Speech Clarity: While hearing aids are designed to 
enhance sound clarity, factors like improper fit, age-related hearing 
changes, or clogged Earmolds can reduce speech clarity over time.
Unwanted Sounds and Feedback: Many users report occasional 
whistling or buzzing sounds, usually caused by moisture or an 
imperfect seal in the earmold. Preventing feedback is possible by 
keeping hearing aids dry and having Earmolds professionally 
adjusted when necessary.
Allergic Reactions: Although rare, some users may experience 
skin irritation or allergic reactions from the plastic in Earmolds or 
hearing aid casings. If you have sensitive skin, inform your hearing 
care provider to explore hypoallergenic options.
Preventing Hearing Aid Side 
Effects
Gradual Adjustment: Allow your ears and brain to adapt by 
wearing the hearing aids for short periods initially, then gradually 
increase usage.
Proper Cleaning and Maintenance: Regularly clean and dry 
your hearing aids to prevent infections and unwanted noises. Use 
specific cleaning solutions designed for hearing aids.
Avoid Wearing Them Overnight: Removing your hearing aids at 
night not only lets your ears rest but also reduces moisture buildup, 
minimizing infection risks.
Regular Fitting Checks: Over time, earmolds and other 
components may need adjustments or replacement. Visit your 
hearing care provider for routine checks.
Stay Informed on Repairs: Never attempt repairs yourself; always 
rely on a hearing care professional to avoid further issues.
