6. What are the signs of ear damage in babies and how can I look for them?

Recognizing the signs of ear damage in babies is crucial for early intervention and hearing health. Some common indicators include a lack of response to loud noises, delayed speech development, and consistently turning their head to one side to hear better. Babies might also tug on their ears frequently or have difficulty maintaining balance. If you notice any of these signs, it is important to seek professional advice.
