I need suggestions!

As I age my hearing gets worse. I hear about 30% at best. One Dr told me I have a lot of sound recognition loss. I have been trying to find a way to watch TV and play my games with sound. The headsets still don't give me what I need. I am trying the earbud style but there is a problem with those. When I first put them on I put them where I can hear pretty well. After a few minutes though the tend to fall out of my ears. I have large channels and for many years I thought that was the problem with my hearing. The Dr tells me that that usually means the sound is getting in but why not to my eardrums? Well, the earbuds direct the sound to my eardrums but they fall out. My question is is there a liquid rubber to smear on the earbuds that hold them in place? And then is it safe to use in my ears? Please I would very much like to find a way to make these earbuds work as they are the best I have found so far.

Don't use superglue...!!!

Seems one of the easier "helps" would be an awesome headset. My hearing loss is not what yours is, but I've been around others who have had little hearing ability. So sorry about that.

My wife and I have looked deeply into alternative remedies. I am not really trusting allopathic care too much, unless I need a bone set. Try researching "alternative hearing care/remedies".

Wish you the best on this BigPapa...

I wonder if one of those 'jawbone' headsets would work for you?  Just a thought.

I wonder if the ear hooks they make for Apple AirPods and others might fit your what you're using??

Maybe the ear phone caps you use aren't the largest available? Easy to switch.

Yep that would work. Hey @BigPapaDean search for Earbud Hooks. They are literally made to keep earbuds from falling out of your ears.

custom ear buds , seen at motorcycles shows , takes your buds and they make a mold of your ear and insert your ear bud in it ,

I use the powerbeats pro that have a loop for over the ears. There are many different versions on amazon. These never fall out.
