To give you some sort of perspective:<\/p>\n<p>A normal conversation measures around 60 dB.<br \/>\nHeavy Katy traffic measures around 85 dB and can cause damage within 8 hours.<br \/>\nA lawnmower measures around 100 dB and can cause damage within 15 minutes.<br \/>\nA rock concert can clock in at around 120 dB and can cause damage instantly.<br \/>\nJust like noise-induced hearing loss, tinnitus is caused by damage to the ear. Within the inner ear, there are small hairs. When a soundwave enters the ear it causes the hair to move; this movement sends an electrical signal through the auditory nerve to the brain where it is interpreted as sound. If these hairs become damaged, they can begin to randomly send signals to the brain. This causes tinnitus.<\/p>\n<p>Age-related hearing loss, exposure to loud noise and earwax blockage are all common conditions that cause inner ear damage.<\/p>\n<p>Can You Prevent Tinnitus?<br \/>\nWhile you understand all the risks involved, you probably still want to go to that concert you spent your hard earned money on. The good news is there is a fairly simple solution to this quandary \u2013 earplugs.<\/p>\n<p>If you are in a pinch, disposable, one-size-fits-all earplugs are sold at most pharmacies. But the best results are from the ones that are custom-fit to your ears by your Katy audiologist.<\/p>\n<p>There are a number of earplugs on the market; the ones you want to protect your ears with while rocking out are called musician\u2019s earplugs. These custom earmolds are able to reduce sound levels evenly so music and speech sound clear. These plugs prevent dangerously loud sounds from entering the ears but still keep the integrity of the music intact.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let the concert of a lifetime leave you with a lifelong condition.
