Conductive hearing loss means that the hearing nerve and cochlea are working normal, but the sound is not getting to the cochlea properly. This generally means one of 4 things: ear canal problems (ear wax, infection, developmental deformity), ear drum problem (stiff or punctured), ear bones problem (otosclerosis), or middle ear problem (fluid in middle ear, eustachian tube pressure problems). Conductive hearing losses are often able to be corrected by medicine or surgery, unlike nerve hearing problems.
B. Damage to his middle ear
In cases where it is permanent, heredity. There are a lot of things that can disrupt hearing, including wax buildup and a number of illnesses or conditions. But these are all temporary (usually) and can be treated directly and on a symptomatic basis. In some cases, those serious and progressive ones, the affected individual has something "passed down" in his makeup that contributes to the condition.
What else can I help you with?
What form of deafness is caused by disease to the three tiny bones to the inner ear?
conduction deafness
Can conduction deafness result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve?
Yes the result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve is sensorineural deafness. The result from the fusion of the ossicles is conduction deafness.
Where does nerve conduction deafness occur?
Nerve conduction deafness is one of the two types of deafness that can happen. It occurs when there is a break in communication between the nerve cells and the inner ear.
What form deafness is caused by disease to the three tiny bones of the inner ear?
conduction deafness
What forms of deafness is caused by disease to the three tiny bones of the inner ear?
conduction deafness
What diagnostic tests are used to determine conduction deafness?
One test used to determine conduction deafness is Weber's Test. A fork is vibrated against the forehead and should be heard equally in both ears. If it is heard best in the 'good' ear than it is sensorineural deafness but if it is heard best in the 'bad' ear then this is what determines the conduction deafness.

Is total nerve deafness correctable with hearing aids?
No, only conduction deafness is correctable with hearing aids
Sound heard in one ear but not in the other during bone and air conduction?
conduction deafness
How do sound wave reach the cochlea when conduction deafness is present?
how do sound waves reach the cochlea when conduction of deafness is present? when something interferes with the conduction of sound vibration to the fluids of the inner ear.something as simple as a buildup of earwax may be cause.
Untreated otitis media can lead to this condition?
conduction deafness
Bone conduction deafness affects this part of the ear?
