Middle ear infections can result in

a conductive hearing loss. A person
who experiences this type of impairment
is likely to have difficulty hearing
loud sounds or soft sounds?

Don't they have difficulty hearing soft
sounds?

Thank you for your help!

yes, cant hear soft sounds.

Yes, you are correct. A person who experiences a conductive hearing loss as a result of a middle ear infection is likely to have difficulty hearing soft sounds. This is because middle ear infections can cause the obstruction or inflammation of the middle ear, which can interfere with the transmission of sound waves to the inner ear. Consequently, the ability to hear soft sounds is reduced, while the ability to hear loud sounds is generally less affected.
