HURRICANES AND HEARING: Exposure to strong sustained winds has the potential to create noise-induced hearing loss! Winds of 85 mph and above can cause hearing loss if exposure is prolonged or repeated. The louder the sound, the less exposure it takes. Imagine that Key West experienced sustained winds of 125 mph. Just one more reason to evacuate the island before Hurricane Irma hit.
ARE YOUR EARS RINGING? You are in good company. Research indicates that as many as
50 million Americans have experienced tinnitus and that 16 million Americans have reported
frequent tinnitus, occurring at least once per day (Shargorodsky, Curhan & Farwell, 2010). Customized ear level devices, programmed smartly, may help you manage your particular tinnitus effectively!
For those of you with newborn children, grandchildren or great-grandchildren, ensure the noise-making sleep machine you are using to keep the baby lulled asleep is not damaging the baby's hearing. Keep the level to 50dB or below. Use one of the many noise measuring apps on your smart phone to check the sound level at the crib. Placing the sleep machine on the side of the nursery away from the crib is always best!
