Welcome to mbctalk,
Listen to songs to refresh your mood during work or leisure time. So far so good but if you also listen to the song through headphones or earphones then be careful.
If studies are to be believed, generally people use earphones for 3 to 4 hours throughout the day. But do you know that excessive use of earphones or headphones not only damages the ears but also reduces the ability to hear.
According to E&T experts, people who use headphones and earphones for more than 60 minutes can suffer long-term damage, but if the volume is low, it can be used for more than an hour. So if you use headphones and earphones continuously, you can become a victim of diseases like headache, heart problems, and hearing problems.

Harmful to watch videos or listen to loud music
If you are also in the habit of using headphones and earphones with high volume then it can prove to be harmful to your health. Earphones can emit up to 100 dB of noise, which is enough to damage your ears.
According to doctors, listening to sounds above 85 dB for a long time can cause ear damage. On the other hand, sound less than 75 dB is considered best for our ears.
Possibility of ear infection
Headphones and earphones cause heat in the ears which can increase the risk of ear infection many times due to the presence of bacteria. Keeping earphones on the ears for long periods of time puts pressure on the ear veins, causing the veins to swell. Its use causes vibration in the ear, which adversely affects the hearing cells. This is the reason why the use of headphones sometimes causes ear pain.
Chances of infection by using other people's headphones
If you also have a habit of sharing your earphones with others, be careful. There is a risk of getting an infection in your ears due to using other people's earphones. If a friend's headphones or earphones have any harmful bacteria and viruses, they can harm your ears.
Listening to loud music can cause insomnia
According to doctors, excessive use of earphones can also lead to problems like dizziness, insomnia, headache, and earache. Listening to loud music increases the heart rate, which increases blood pressure and also damages the heart.
