Start becoming aware of the signs of hearing loss, and consult your
doctor or audiologist if you start to notice some of the symptoms:
• Trouble hearing over the phone
• Vertigo, causing dizziness, pain, or ringing in the ears
• Mumbled voices
• Having to ask others to repeat themselves often
• Avoidance of social situations
• Having a family medical history of hearing loss
Individuals with hearing loss may often be reluctant to face the
reality, but may not know about the deeper implications of letting it
go untreated. If you or someone you know may be experiencing some
of the symptoms of hearing loss, be sure to understand and share the
benefits of seeking treatment.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN
As we learned in grade school, our largest organ is our skin. Our skin
regulates body temperature, protects against the elements, and gives
us the feeling of different sensations. Since our skin does so much for
us, it is important to take care of it. A skincare routine is important for
men and women of all ages, although it will vary throughout the years.
TEENAGE YEARS
When starting your first skincare routine, it’s important to first
determine your skin type. It’s pretty simple to figure out whether oily,
dry, or combination. Between breakouts and blemishes, think about
how your skin feels on a day-to-day basis. Here are some do’s and
don’ts about treating your skin during your teens:

• DO: Pick a cleanser, scrub, toner, and moisturizer that are
meant for your skin type. Labels make it easy to choose
between the different brands. Many brands have a line of
products developed especially for oily, dry, or combination
skin. It is still important to put on moisturizer if you have oily
skin, but be sure to look for one that is oil-free.
• DO: Look for a moisturizer or foundation that has SPF! It is
important to keep an SPF product on whenever you go outside
to protect your skin from the damaging effects of the sun in the
future (you’ll be so glad you did).
• DON’T: Pick! You can pick your friends, but don’t pick your
stubborn pimples! Although you might want to rid yourself of
whiteheads and blackheads, resist the urge! This could lead to
long-term, damaging effects on your skin.
• DON’T: Leave makeup on overnight. As tempting as it is to
crash after a long day, make sure to give your pores a rest from
makeup. Makeup-removing wipes are a quick alternative to at
least get a majority of products off of your face.
• DO: Be sure to wipe down your cell phone. Bacteria can live on
the surface and cause major breakouts on your cheeks and chin
if not properly sanitized.
PREVENTION YEARS
As a young adult, it’s important to continue good habits of caring
for your skin. This is the prime age to prevent unwanted wrinkles
that you may start to face in the next five to 10 years. Now is the time
to take charge by:
• Wearing eye cream. We have seen the commercials about
preventing wrinkles. But when do you have to start? NOW!
