Conductive hearing loss occurs when sound waves are obstructed, muffled, or prevented from traveling efficiently through the outer or middle ear to reach the inner ear (cochlea). Because the inner ear and auditory nerve typically remain undamaged, sound signals are simply reduced in volume rather than distorted. This form of hearing loss often stems from temporary or treatable conditions—such as excess earwax buildup, fluid accumulation behind the eardrum, ear infections, structural abnormalities, or perforated eardrums. Consequently, conductive hearing loss can frequently be addressed or restored through medical interventions, simple procedures, or surgical treatments, making it one of the most manageable and responsive forms of hearing impairment.
