Recently, the use of headphones on the Internet on the Internet has been significantly longer. To avoid hearing damage, please see the following 60-60 principle. You must seek medical treatment immediately when you encounter a serious situation.

"Put on the Internet on the Internet, relax and listen to music, chat ... and continue online class .... My child has never taken the headset in the morning ..." This is a mother's complaint. Under the epidemic, the duration of teenagers with headphones is far beyond the past. As a parent, you once said to your child, "Take off your headphones", but now you have to give up. However, you can remind you below to help your children avoid hearing damage to the use of headphones for a long time.

The data of the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that about 50% of the 12 to 35 -year -old people are facing the risk of hearing damage due to long -term and excessive exposure to loud sounds (such as: music heard through personal audio equipment, etc.) Essence

Unfortunately, the hearing damage caused by excessive exposure to very large noise is irreversible. However, WHO also estimates that 60%of children under 15 years of age can be prevented and avoided. Through children's screening and early intervention, hearing damage can be reduced. To this end, prevention is the key!

Suggestions of listening doctors: 60-60 principle, that is,:

• Listening to music with no more than 60%volume, watching video information, playing games, and listening to the Internet.

• The time limit for putting the earplugs on the ear is 60 minutes.

The other two methods determine whether your earplugs are in a safe volume:

Ask if someone sitting near you can hear the music you are listening to. If it can, it indicates that your hearing may be damaged. Low the volume until others can't hear it.

If you can't hear anything around you when you listen to your headphones, then the volume is too high.

Today, most players can produce a sound of up to 120 decibels, which is equivalent to the volume of rock concerts. Studies have shown that the noise level exposed at 100 decibels (considered a strong sound level) next time, it is unsafe more than 15 minutes.

Once the hearing is lost, there is no way to let it come back. To this end, the maximum volume percentage and duration must follow the 60-60 rules. At the same time, some listening experts recommend using old-fashioned and larger headphones to put on the earvar instead of earphones that are directly placed in the ear.

What are the signs of hearing damage?

The type of hearing damage caused by the use of headphones is usually gradual, accumulated, and no obvious warning signals. Hearing testing and physical examination are often the only way to diagnose hearing damage.

• It is difficult to understand the voice in the noisy place or the place where the audio effect is not good.

• The sound is low, and the ears are blocked.

• Listen to TV or radios with higher volume than in the past.

"Whether using headphones or headphones, moderate is the key, and reducing or avoiding excessive use of hearing equipment will greatly help prevent hearing damage." Remember: Once your hearing is lost, there is no way to let it come back Essence Children and adults of all ages should conduct regular hearing examinations to prevent the sustainable development of hearing damage as soon as possible.
