Sensorineural Hearing Loss. Permanent hearing loss occurs when inner ear nerves become damaged and do not properly transmit their signals to the brain. Those who suffer from this condition may complain that people seem to mumble or that they hear, but do not understand, what is being said. The aging process is a very common cause of sensorineural hearing loss. As we get older, the inner ear nerves and sensory cells gradually die.
A Low-frequency hearing loss may be missed because it tends to not have many symptoms. Lower frequency sounds do not have as much information as sounds in the higher frequencies so people with hearing in the middle and high frequencies can use what they hear in those frequencies to make up for what they do not hear in the lower frequencies, thereby masking the hearing loss.
