Yes, these days - experts are also warning us about the
harm of using headphones on mobile or tablet. So, almost everyone is warning
their children about the harm of using headphones on mobile/tablet. Apart from
deafness, there are many other harms. However, deafness becomes a visual and
funny thing. My curious mind is interested in finding out about all kinds of
ear problems.
We already know that - most people are deaf because
they cannot hear. Is it necessary to explain that a deaf person is suffering?
The doctor said, how will they accept the sound if
they cannot hear it? This is the problem of the deaf.
We usually understand deafness as a hearing problem.
We generally do not give importance to this problem, on the contrary, we laugh
at the deaf person. But this is very wrong and not giving importance is proof
of our ignorance.
Who has the deficiency of any organ – only he
understands his pain. And it is wrong to joke about someone's pain. If we think
even once, any of us can have a deficiency of any organ at any time.
Deafness is the cause of various problems. For a
healthy life, parents should be careful for their children from childhood. If
there is any deficiency in someone's body due to ignorance, there is no point
in blaming fate later.
One of our five important senses is the sense of hearing. However, we are
completely indifferent to taking care of the sense of hearing. Congenital
deafness prevents the development of speech. Hearing loss and deafness make
people unacceptable in society.
Experts say - the main causes of deafness are middle
ear inflammation, traumatic problems, and deafness caused by high levels of
noise.
A little awareness can protect us from this problem.
For example, not listening to loud music, not honking loudly, using appropriate
noise insulation if the level of noise pollution in the workplace is high - can
prevent hearing loss. On the other hand, those who are deaf can overcome their
limitations by using hearing aids. In general, it is visually noticeable - so
awareness is the only option to be overall fit and beautiful.

I wanted to specify the general causes of deafness - what are the specific
causes, - the expert said -
1. People
can become deaf due to genetic reasons.
2. Birth
complications - such as low birth weight, premature birth and neonatal jaundice
can also cause deafness.
3. Some
infections during pregnancy can cause deafness, such as cytomegalovirus,
rubella.
4. Hearing
loss occurs due to meningitis, mumps, measles, middle ear infections in
children.
5. Loud
noises, such as - high volume of headsets or headphones and the sound of
fireworks are harmful to the ears.
6. Use
of medicines that are harmful to the ears.
7. Other
ear diseases.
# When asked how to prevent it, the expert said -
Strengthening the vaccination schedule, training
health care providers in the hearing screening program for children, making
hearing devices and therapy readily available, controlling noise pollution, and
ensuring the safe use of ototoxic drugs can be a solution.
General warning message from the expert - Nothing
should be inserted into the ear. Even sticks, chicken feathers, or cotton buds
should not be used to clean the ear.
If the ear is clogged with dirt or if something enters
the ear, you should seek medical attention to remove it. Oil or any other
medicine should not be used in the ear without the advice of a doctor. Care
should be taken to ensure that water does not enter the ear. Above all - you
should seek medical advice for any ear problem.

Experts talk about another ear problem, called - tinnitus. Which usually occurs
in older people.
Many people hear different types of sounds in their
ears without any external noise or sound source. Each person hears different
types of sounds, such as - unusual whistles or bells, hissing sounds like wind,
buzzing - hissing - ticking - the sound of bees, and even loud or
soft sounds like the roar of a steamer or the sea. This problem is called
tinnitus. It is actually a symptom of some other disease of the ear or body.
The doctor said - if the hearing ability decreases due
to age, living in noisy environment, high blast noise, excessive use of
headphones, accumulation of dirt in the ear, ear infection or rupture of the
membrane or water in the ear, injury can cause this problem.
Tinnitus can also be caused by various ear diseases.
Again, hereditary factors, the effects of aspirin or antibiotics, excessive
coffee consumption, smoking or drinking alcohol, yawning or sneezing loudly,
blowing your nose loudly, malnutrition, radiation therapy used for cancer
treatment, thyroid disease, high blood pressure, anemia, carotid artery
problems or a brain disease called multiple sclerosis can also cause tinnitus.
If the doctor hears any sound along with the patient,
the doctor will take the necessary measures. Otherwise, the doctor's advice
should be followed. In very rare cases, surgery is required.
If you experience dizziness or lightheadedness,
difficulty hearing, vomiting, loss of balance, or tinnitus for more
than a week, you should seek immediate medical attention.
In most cases, regular tinnitus can be cured by
getting enough rest and avoiding noisy environments. Avoid tea, coffee, soft
drinks, alcohol, chocolate, and smoking, and eat foods rich in zinc, magnesium,
and vitamin B.
To
lead a healthy life, you should keep diabetes and high
blood pressure under control. If there are side effects of any medication, you
should consult a doctor and change the medication.
