subject: Music Is Not The Main Culprit [print this page] The accent is sometimes placed on the first syllable and sometimes it has a long I sound with a stress on the second syllable. Imagine being bothered by it 24 hours a day and seven days a week, and then you will know why it is called misery. Tinnitus refers to any annoying noise in the ear that is not precipitated by any external factor.
There is no exact way to describe it basing on the response of actual sufferers. My version is one of a vibrating sound as though I have a hair drier over me, while other people have bells or trains. Japanese bullet train sound is what another tinnitus complainant experience especially if her head is clogged.
Everyone wishes for technology to reach the point of having a real cure for this disease. While it is yet to happen, the problem remains too grave that some of the sufferers decide to kill themselves. An audiologist in Huntingdon claims to have three patients during his practice who hit the bottom and committed suicide.
Kids these days are very fond of loud music such as rock and roll and this bothers the audiologist a lot because blasting their ears with these sounds ruin their hearing. I believe we should not put the blame on the music type. Even mellow music can blow your hearing off if you play it too loud.
I attended a gathering in a low ceilinged amphitheater and I was caught with my ears stuffed with cotton. My longstanding sound misery began that day and that was also the first time I sought for a remedy. The pill I got was the most unacceptable because I was told I had tinnitus, a condition that I need to live with.
It is important that kids know how difficult tinnitus is for them to take advice on listening habits seriously. The ears are bombarded by a tremendous noise these days.
Now that they are young, the hearing loss seem nonexistent and they only remember their good old earphone days once they experience the long term effects. Your listening ways in your younger years will be a gauge on how much you will be hearing when you are older. Six out of 10 freshmen students in college are experiencing hearing losses and the culprit is loud music.
Boisterous noises make newborns particularly exposed to inner ear damage that may even lead to loss of brain cells, according to another authority. Sounds of the loud low frequency type should be kept away from new born babies, like those you get from jet engines or chain saws.
Warning from Swedish researchers on toys that create too much noise and the harm it poses. A seemingly harmless squeaky rubber squeeze toys position near the ear can actually produce 108 decibels which is the same loudness a chain saw creates.
