Water can damage your hearing primarily through the risk of developing ear infections, such as swimmer's ear, which can lead to inflammation and fluid buildup in the ear canal. Prolonged exposure to moisture can also affect the eardrum and inner ear, potentially causing hearing loss. Additionally, water entering the ear during swimming or bathing may introduce bacteria, increasing the likelihood of infections that can harm auditory health. If not treated, these conditions can lead to long-term hearing issues.
