Hearing loss is separated into two types or categories. These are Sensorineural, neural, inner ear or cochlear hearing loss and Conductive, blockage of the inner and outer ear, a ruptured eardrum or some type of structure abnormality. . In some cases, some people have shown signs of both types at the same time. This is called a mixed hearing loss. In rare instances, hearing loss can result from some damage to auditory sensors in the brain.
