[QUOTE="NDwalleyes, post: 333419, member: 218"] I thought I had posted about this earlier, but don't see it so I'm going to add to the conversation. Many people only relate hearing loss to exposure to noise. Chemical and medication exposure is also a major cause. Do some research on "ototoxic" medications & chemicals. These are chemicals that damage/kill the cilia hairs in your ears. Typically due to chronic exposure over many years. "Hear" is a link and a short list of ototoxic chemicals...I'm sure you find some of them familiar. Benzene – plastics, paints, cleaning agents, cigarette smoke Carbon disulfide – pesticides Carbon monoxide – cigarette smoke, welding, gasoline-powered tools and vehicles Styrene – plastics, insulating material Trichloroethylene – paints, waxes, pesticides, lubricants, rug cleaners, spot remover Toluene – paints, lacquers, adhesives, rubber, leather tanning, spray paint Xylene – paints, varnishes, thinners [url]https://www.lhsfna.org/common-chemicals-create-risk-for-hearing-loss/[/url] [/QUOTE]
