Health Tip: How Loud is Too Loud?
By LadyLively on May 27, 2015
While hearing loss can be part of the aging process, it can also be caused by exposure to loud noise.
When is a noise too loud? The American Academy of Otolaryngology says hearing loss may occur if:
- You must shout so that others can hear you within an arm’s distance.
- Noise is so loud that it hurts your ears.
- Your ears are ringing from the noise.
- You have a hard time hearing for a few hours after exposure to the noise.
