RE: Do You Suffer With Tinnitus (Ringing In The Ears)? Here's Body Wisdom From An Expert Healer.
Keep music at 60% of full volume or lower when using earbuds. Don't listen for more than 60 minutes at one time.
Earbuds can be particularly problematic, particularly the type that have a rubbery seal.
The percentage is less important than the actual loudness in decibels - which is not always going to be easy to measure, so the key thing is to be sensitive to the volume and have it quieter rather than louder.
Hearing loss is also influenced by the duration of exposure to stimulus, not only the intensity. While tinnitus is still more elusive, audiologists do understand acquired hearing loss and once damaged, we've seen little evidence that physical structures used to hear can repair themselves. Tinnitus or not, protect your hearing, folks! :)
