Why Dont My Hearing Aids Stay In?
Hearing aids are a crucial tool for improving the
quality of life for those with hearing loss.
However, one common issue many users face is
keeping their hearing aids securely in place. If
you find that your hearing aids frequently fall
out or shift in your ears, you're not alone.
Several factors could be contributing to this
problem, and understanding them can help you find
a solution.

Placement Issues with BTE and RIC Models
Improper Fit The Most Common Culprit

• The primary reason hearing aids may not stay in
  your ears is an improper fit. Hearing aids are
  not a one-size-fits-all solution. Each person's
  ears are unique, and a hearing aid that fits
  someone else perfectly might not fit you at all.
  If the hearing aid is too large, it can push
  itself out of your ear. If its too small, it may
  not sit securely and can easily be dislodged.

If you use Behind-the-Ear (BTE) or
Receiver-in-Canal (RIC) hearing aids, incorrect
placement might be the reason they don't stay in.
These types of hearing aids consist of a body
that rests behind the ear and a wire or tube that
connects to the receiver or earmold inside the
ear canal. If the body of the hearing aid is
positioned too far down the back of your ear, it
can create tension on the wire or tube, pulling
the receiver out of your ear canal.

Moisture and Wax Build-up

• Moisture or earwax can also cause hearing aids to
  move around in your ears. Excessive sweating or
  wax production can create a slippery environment
  inside the ear canal, leading to the hearing aid
  slipping out. If this is a recurring issue, speak
  with your hearing care professional. They may
  recommend specific hearing aid models that are
  more resistant to moisture or suggest regular ear
  cleanings to manage wax build-up.

Conclusion
In conclusion, if your hearing aids arent
staying in place, dont get discouraged. By
working closely with a hearing care professional
and exploring the various solutions available,
you can find a comfortable and secure fit that
allows you to fully enjoy the benefits of your
hearing aids. To book an appointment for a free
