Risk of Deafness With the iPod!
Risk of deafness with ipods! Today's young kids love their music loud but they risk the chance of going deaf by the time they are in their 40's.
A survey done recently has found out that an mp3 player at top volume is as dangerous as standing beside the speakers at a nightclub.
By the time the music lover starts getting ringing in the ears, it's too late to turn down the volume and save those ears. When this is done over and over again , you will get some major damage done to your hearing.
Delicate hair cells, including your ear drums and other important parts will be damaged by repeated loud music causing partial deafness or deafness period.
How much is too much? It's a matter of risk!
The survey found: Fourteen percent of all British listen to MP3 Players at least 28 hours per week.
Among those who report having ringing in their ears after a rock concert or night club visit, one-third went right back to playing MP3's every day - raising the risk of permanent damage to their hearing.
Twenty- eight per cent of 16 - 34 year olds visit noisy bars or pubs or nightclubs
once or twice a week. Yet this age group is mainly unaware they can go deaf prematurely from the noise.
Hearing damage can start after just 15 minutes of steady noise at or above 105 decibels. Heavy traffic is around 85 decibels, a loud nightclubor someone shouting into your ear at close range is about 110. MP3 Players can reach 112 and some car stereos can reach 125 decibels.
So what's the best plan? Be more careful and protect your ears from getting permanent damage.
Here's an idea some may think it is stupid and some may not , but why not wear earplugs when you go to a loud bar, pub, or night club or concert. You can still hear but cut down the high noise by quite a lot. And turn down the volume on anything you plug into your ears.
We hope that we have raised or increased your awareness to how important it is to not have music blasting into your ears. Because we care and do not want the young generation to become deaf or even a partial bit deaf when they all in their 40's.
