Why Are Your Hearing Aids Whistling?

If your hearing aids have started making a whistling or squealing sound, try not to worry, it doesn't always mean something is wrong. More often than not, it's a simple issue that can be fixed pretty easily.

Here are a few common reasons hearing aids whistle:

• They aren't sitting properly in your ear

• Earwax is blocking the ear canal

• The volume is set too high

• The dome or earmold is worn or no longer fits well

• Your hearing aid needs a professional cleaning or adjustment

A little feedback now and then is normal, but if the whistling happens often, it's a good idea to have your hearing aids checked. A quick cleaning, adjustment, or replacement of a small part may be all that's needed.
