cochlea's

It may be that activation of the cochlea's protective mechanism from physical stress changes the way the cells of the inner ear respond to the next exposure.

As part of a standard evaluation, patients are given a series of tests: a tympanogram, to determine how the eardrums respond to air pressure; an assessment of the cochlea's response to sound; and a standard audiogram, to test the frequency and intensity of sounds that define the span of hearing.

The pars tensa, the first receiver of the ear can actually distribute vibrating air molecules across the cochlea's sensory grid and in turn each of the cochlea's miniscule hairs transmits to the brain a precise neurological estimate of duration and rhythm.

"A loud sound in a particular frequency range can damage the cochlea's cells which will reduce your ear's ability to pick up those frequencies later on," he added.

While the cochlea's "inner hair cells" are only passive detectors, the so-called "outer hair cells" amplify the sound signal as it transforms into an electrical signal that travels to the brain's auditory center.
