PROTECT YOUR EAR HEALTH While our focus is on reducing/eliminating exposure to high volumes for extended periods, radiation is also worth noting, especially with Bluetooth and wireless devices that sit close to the head. These gadgets emit radiation, the same kind as Wi-Fi and smartphones. Common Consequences of Overexposure • Hearing Loss, which can be temporary (like after a loud concert) or permanent, especially if one regularly overdoes it with volume. The little hair cells inside your ears that help you hear don’t regrow once they’re damaged. • Ear infections can also occur when people share their listening devices or don’t properly maintain them. Earbuds and in-ear headphones may cause irritation and moisture build-up in the ear canal, which encourages bacterial growth and increases the risk of infections For more health tips, watch Healthy Living on Healing Streams TV.
