Ears Ringing
Presbycusis among the older generation and exposure to loud noise among the younger generation causes ears ringing. These are the two most common causes of ringing in the ears now-a-days.
Presbycusis among the older generation isn’t that alarming because it is a known fact that as a person grows older, hearing problems arises because of the degeneration of the hair cells. What is alarming is the sudden rise of incidence of hearing loss among the younger generation. They put the blame to their exposure to loud noise or music.
They usually find out about it only when they already have a mild hearing loss. This is the big problem because they continue to expose their ears when they listen to extremely loud music. By the time they discover that the loud music is damaging their hearing, it is already too late and there is nothing more that can be done to save them from having hearing loss.
There is an urgent need to have information dissemination so as to inform those who love listening to music of the dangers that listening to loud music can do to their ears. It has always been a misconception that your ears will in time become immune to loud music as you continuously expose it.
The reality is that the more you expose your ears, the more you put your ears to danger and the possibility of having your ears ringing
