Young adults often have the mind set that they won't have to care about an ailment that won't affect them until they are much older- such as hearing loss. Even still, young adults and even today's children should be taking care with what they expose their ears to.
Hearing loss is progressively becoming common, and at younger ages. The problem has been that music has been able to come in more convenient, smaller, forms such as the personal music players available today. This has led children and teens to have easy access to sound at any time of the day- which contributes greatly to hearing loss if the volume is considered too loud. Even moderate volume will do damage over time.
You are constantly being bombarded with sound waves- and oddly enough usually more so at work than anywhere else. Unless you work at a library, and consider yourself lucky if you do, your hearing can be impacted by environments where you interact with other people, machinery, and other environment sounds. Although hard to avoid, creative thinking can find solutions.
The environment in terms of sound can contribute to hearing loss- but so can your hygiene. Having a bad sense of hygiene can lead to infection, as in the case of not thoroughly cleaning out your ear canal on a regular basis. Not doing so will contribute to an excess of ear wax, which can attract bacteria and eventually lead to a painful sickness of the inner ear. It's not just painful, it damages your hearing!
A clear sign that you have done damage to your ears is that you hear a ringing or clouded sound as you are in silence. This condition is called tinnitus. Currently there isn't a lot that can be done to circumvent the condition, so a rule of thumb is to pay attention to when this happens and make sure the event that caused it will not be a problem in the future.
It is unfortunate that much of the damage being done to our youth is done through current fads. Going to a popular concert and wearing ear protection while no one else is could be socially awkward.Take the initiative to have confidence in yourself, and to respect your body, by using an ear plug to drown out any unnecessary sound from the environment.
Final Thoughts
Your health is the most important thing you have. Protecting it is actually easy- just take your time and figure out where you can improve the health of your ear. If damage has already done, you may actually need to obtain the aid from a doctor to get a custom hearing aid.
