In simple terms, noise-induced hearing loss is permanent damage to the tiny hair cells in your ears, known as stereocilia, from loud sounds. Akin to earthquakes, hazardous levels of noise produce vibrations in the hair cells that are so powerful they are damaging\u2014sometimes permanently.
What causes Occupational Hearing Loss (OHL)? OHL can occur when workers are exposed to loud noise or ototoxic chemicals. Noise is considered loud (hazardous) when it reaches 85 decibels or higher, or if a person has to raise his/her voice to speak with someone 3 feet away (arm's length).
Sometimes exposure to impulse or continuous loud noise causes a temporary hearing loss that disappears 16 to 48 hours later. Recent research suggests, however, that although the loss of hearing seems to disappear, there may be residual long-term damage to your hearing.
It is well known that a 4,000-Hz dip is often observed in the initial stage of noise-induced hearing loss and acoustic trauma, but it does not always occur as a result of these causes, and quite often the cause is unknown.
Noise-induced hearing loss is permanent hearing loss that is caused by being around loud noises over a long period of time. It can also occur after you are exposed to loud noise in a short period of time, such as a gunshot or explosion. The more you are around loud noises, the more you risk having hearing loss.

A noise-induced hearing loss is often accompanied by tinnitus \u2013 a ringing, whooshing, roaring or buzzing sounds in your ears, also more commonly known as ringing ears.
Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is caused by exposure to harmful, loud noise....Symptoms and Causes Inability to hear high-pitched sounds, like birds singing. Muffled or distorted speech. Tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ear). A feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear.
Noise trauma can result in two types of injury to the inner ear, depending on the intensity and duration of the exposure: either transient attenuation of hearing acuity a.k.a. temporary threshold shift (TTS), or a permanent threshold shift (PTS) [11]. Hearing generally recovers within 24\u201348 h after a TTS [12].
Two distinct types of hearing loss are caused by excessive noise exposure: NIHL and acoustic trauma. NIHL is caused by repeated exposures to sound that is too intense or too long in duration.
The first sign of a noise-induced hearing loss is not hearing high-pitched sounds, like the singing of birds. It may also be not understanding speech when in a crowd or an area with a lot of background noise. If the damage goes on, hearing declines further, and lower pitched sounds become hard to understand.
