Stop the Squeal: Practical Fixes for Hearing Aid Feedback

Stop the Squeal: Practical Fixes for Hearing Aid Feedback

Few things are more frustrating—or embarrassing—than a hearing aid that suddenly squeals in a quiet moment. Whether it happens in church, during a hug, or in a meeting, hearing aid feedback can make people feel self-conscious and unsure if something is wrong with them or their device.

In this episode, Dr. Layne Garrett of Timpanogos Hearing & Tinnitus explains why hearing aids squeal, what acoustic feedback actually is, and why it's almost always fixable. You'll learn how sound leaks back into the microphone, why poor fit is the number one cause of feedback, and how earwax, volume settings, and worn parts can make the problem worse.

Dr. Garrett also walks through simple, safe steps you can try at home—like reseating your hearing aid correctly—and explains when it's time to see a professional. He covers what's normal feedback versus what isn't, and how modern hearing aids use feedback-canceling technology that still depends on proper fit and maintenance.

If hearing aid squeal has made you hesitant to wear your devices, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and a clear plan to fix the problem.
