Daily use of earphones is more dangerous than you imagine.
The use of earphones has become a daily habit that many people cannot do without, at home and outside, while commuting or exercising.
However, this intensive use is becoming an increasing risk to hearing health , especially when the volume is raised for long periods without awareness of the consequences, according to the British newspaper “Mirror”.
Continuous exposure to loud sounds through earphones can lead to permanent damage to the delicate tissues inside the ear, causing health problems such as hearing loss and tinnitus , conditions that are often untreatable and may worsen over time.
Experts warn that the damage is not always obvious in its early stages, which leads many to continue with bad habits without concern.
Despite the widespread technical warnings issued by phones when safe volume levels are exceeded, a considerable number of users frequently ignore these warnings, while others continue to raise the volume even after being asked to lower it, especially among teenagers.
As awareness of these risks increases, preventive steps should be planned, including lowering the volume, reducing the use of headphones, or undergoing regular hearing tests.
Experts also recommend using noise-canceling headphones, which allow for clearer listening without the need to turn up the volume in noisy environments.
