Not all hearing aids are waterproof, but many modern hearing aids are water-resistant. Water-resistant hearing aids are designed to withstand moisture from sweat, rain, and mild splashes. However, they are not completely waterproof and should not be submerged in water. If you need a hearing aid for activities like swimming or showering, you can explore specialized waterproof hearing aids that are specifically designed for those purposes. It's best to consult with an audiologist who can recommend the most suitable hearing aids based on your needs and lifestyle.
