While there are a few reasons why your hearing aids might get feedback, the good news is that they are all corrected fairly easily. Here are some common reasons for feedback in your hearing aids and what you can do to stop it: Contact – A quick burst of feedback is usually due to bumping your hearing aid with your phone or maybe knocking it out of place when giving someone a hug. Other times it could be because of a hat or scarf getting in the way of the sound waves that travel into your ear. A quick readjustment should get your hearing aid back to normal. High volume – The louder you turn up your hearing aids, the more likely you are to experience feedback. If you keep finding yourself in situations where your volume is turned all the way up, you may want to make an appointment to make sure it doesn’t need to be adjusted. Fit – Feedback is common if your hearing aids do not fit your ears perfectly. A quick and simple solution is to take them out and reinsert them so they fit snugly inside your ear. If that doesn’t work, come back in and we’ll help you adjust it.
