people are especially aggressive. how should we take care of our hearing? story using q tips is not the solution. in good shape w. we've got some hot tips for your bucket list, the magic corner check. hot spot for food. and some great culture memorial. w. travel off we go, the. ready executive board, right? it's yes you 100, right? because like hundreds, each of us besides a particular it is for making phone calls for, for each dropping full. so did you know that the right is more receptive to music? while the left ear is more receptive to speech?

that's what a study of $3000.00 babies found. anyone in alaska have the longest is in the world. did you get all that? then listen carefully. now. because you're about to learn everything you need to know about your is. welcome to in good shape. i'm the one they're large pointed for round tart years are uniquely formed so uniquely that the shape of already years can be used to identify us like fingerprints. but still, they have some shared characteristics that are found in old people. the elastic structure made of cartilage, for example, of the curved valleys and ridges,

amplify certain frequency mainly so we can pick out voices better and everyone has your low whether they serve a purpose, though it isn't clear, it's possible that their tissues well supplied with blood. help keep the outer ear worn out her years are not enough to be able to hear a long time ago. the ability to turn sound waves into perceptible signals arose in fish in the course of evolution, it stopped there. gil arches became the bones of the inner ear, commonly called the hammer and bolt, and stopped. they function as amplifiers, converting the vibrations of the air into mechanical vibrations, thanks to the large gear drum and the leverage of the bones. the signal is then strong enough to cause the fluid inside the cochlea to move the,

the inner wall is the cochlea is lined with thousands of auditory here. so, unlike normal hairs, they're silly, don't grow back. that's why too much noise often causes irreparable hearing damage . here cells in the inner ear or sensory cells, they convert some movement of the silly into electrical signals. these then traveled to the brain via the auditory nerve. but they're the journey is far from over. the auditory nerve transmits the signal to the brain stem. the auditory cortex localized as the sound source, as well as pitch and sound intensity. but it's only in areas like the cerebral cortex, that sound becomes a conscious perception. our hearing is a complex and sophisticated apparatus that gives us access to a whole world of sensory perceptions. it's only shortcoming is that it's always

active and can't just be turned off. when we want some peace and quiet, we sometimes have no choice, but to help it along. many of us listen to too much loud music with headphones. and the concepts such as will and that more than a 1000000000 teens and young people worldwide are at risk of hearing impairments or even hearing loss. the world health organization close at a hearing loss epidemic queueing problems lead to delayed language development in children isolation, depression, and higher risk of unemployment. the troubling once hearing is damaged, never get special. so you have to protect yourself to maintain healthy is are a few things to keep in mind. cuts and swaps. many people believe that the popular hygiene art schools adjust the right tool to clean it deeply and

thoroughly but fall from it. because cotton swabs push the wex deep into the deluxe, we squeeze together and it can become clumped. there's also risk of injury. sometimes they can well remember the patient who is using a cotton swab, stiffened someone from outside, opened the bathroom door of the car and swap was pushed through the drum and the entire media was broken into one desk because i'm to walk up with we don't need coaching swaps anyway, because this is the self cleaning, it works of both to protect and, and cleanser. never the less candles are often used to clean is a candle this band with one end. and it can, this is suppose to create a vacuum and pull the walks out of the but does it even what, what's unusual doesn't, it doesn't work at all that they're also studies to show that use do not become

cleaner and the risk of complications isn't minutes when the other student has on, we see quite severe injuries in the area of the auditory canals just caused by the use of candles as well as damage to the drum health. i'm and the said that some of us thomas says, so it's better to avoid this technique altogether. what should you do if you is pitch? many of us reach for all kinds of objects to stop the 18 to the old ears are often seen and patients who wants to keep their use especially clean. i recommend 1st of all that you clean, you're using very late on yourself because they clean themselves is on the line. and the 2nd thing is you can try and using your finger to wrap a little oil based cream around your opening. and that spreads itself out a little bit too as a gift, and that's fantastic, done often. but since the greatest danger for that is, is noise,

continuous exposure to loud noise can lead to hearing loss. and genesis very loud fun can even close deafness. you should also what it plugs, concepts them, and i get that. and if you end up at a concert, i'm thinking, crap, i don't have anything with me, but it's getting too loud for me. i use that and it always works. i would grade with tissues i also have that's what i do to i roll the dishes together and put them in my here. so and then you have great protection depending on how hard to squeak for the why it's important to protect children's hearing. that is a particularly sensitive and con, totally right now, defense with that coming to to you can't put anything in children's years. they have much smaller, you can outage, everything falls out again. but you should really use your mouse and i think this is what hearing protection for children looks like by the way, quiet walks, especially after noise events are also get to the is swimming and fading. announced

a problem for healthy is, but after facing any war to should be removed as about how some one after you get the water out of the year after bathing the holding, you had at an angle and then you can wiggle a little bit or help on one leg, depending on what works and then you can use a towel to dry of the walter into the patients are always afraid that the walter can get further into the ear and then disappears somewhere into the head and cut. and that doesn't happen, confesses, you can think of the drum as a barrier if you are leaving. the water comes in for the you're here, the 3rd, the external auditory canal and or that the only reaches the job. that's why it's not the dangerous thing is is office to fiance so it's really not that difficult to keep you is clean and healthy. the medical expense recommend simply giving you is

a rest as often as possible. the counselor, sand dunes in the mojave desert are considered one of the quietest places in the world. but who can go there? it's hard to escape the sounds of daily life. the number one problem is traffic noise which really subsides even at night. the loudest, sits in the world, is said to be moved by in india. the main reasons for this of the constant home, king of caps and rituals, and the many construction projects is also suffering many professionals. so what can be done? hearing protection is a must. there are several ways to do this. does it show it as plays in 3 bass works? is a sound engineer and enjoys listening to live music. his life is one thing above all loud and fab cabins. expose to noise about $3.00 to $4.00 times a week, maybe even 5 times a week. i definitely worry about it damaging my hearing as well because with 4

hearing i'd be out of a job, i would skills davi often use is inexpensive hearing protection. today he wants to find out if it's effective by taking a hearing test or damage. the hearing can occur with any form of noise. noise can also make people sick, increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. ca, individual is of them and come, gets very individualized. so we can agree that for the vast majority, roughly at around and 60 decimals is when hearing starts to be time it did come in . so that can be measured by the release of stress or not. and also, and also there could also be a psychological impact could be used and that's of course much more difficult to measure and which we ago so to of how some common sources of noise in every day life or air and road traffic, live concerts. listening to music through headphones and live sporting events as a sound technician. david is also exposed to noise levels above $85.00 decimals.

without protection here, cells could become damaged, and this could eventually lead to hearing loss. david's hearing test shows that his hearing is fine, but event, i'm a couple, this is once it's damaged at the department of the so it's never gets better and a mobile. that's why with the exposure to a loud noise in your private life and at work with hearing, no matter if it's noise at home or at work or the stress all that job, which of them is. so in your case, it's very important to take precautions that restrict us monday and contact on monday. i'm just, david wants to avoid noise induced hearing loss at all costs. that's why he's trying out 3 pairs of earplugs in different situations and keeping a video diary. in the studio, he tests hearing protection with a membrane filter. these are floats, are supposed to reduce ambient noise by up to 24 decimals while preserving sound

quality caught us. i know we still use a to at soon i, these were ideally suited to a studio situation because i felt that they reduced the overall volume in quite a neutral way of them. which was great because it meant i could adjust the absalom from my guitar 2nd without really having to be exposed to high volumes of sound on the fixed cost. so i'm not stepping off because it's time for me to say these types of your blogs are well suited for concerts, festivals, parties, and clubs. the special design helps to preserve sound quality. how many is on the filter vehicle here? and they have a filter in the back here, which you can see a little down here that it filters out certain frequencies booth them. and that could maybe also be adapted on post. for example, if you can change the filter, you can simply adapt them to the situation to filter out other frequencies. for example, when you need to have a conversation was to bunch the most. that's exactly what the next hearing protector is designed to enable, namely,

to hold the conversation even when there's a lot of background noise. these earplugs are designed to minimize ambient noise, for example, in the office around children or a noisy bars or pugs, but still make it possible to hold a conversation. a dotted tests the year plugs and a noisy pub to see whether they deliver or take the next day. you want us to, to involved in for they definitely reduce noise even though there was a nasty peek in the middle, which is good for understanding speech that all seem they're probably good for going out. that's how i use them to most of in the last appeared david test is simple phone earplugs that has band rehearsal. they're cheap and readily available . he wears them for an entire song, but then breaks off who could them sums of insight and they definitely muscle the sounds, but they also created a lot of static mixed. i couldn't hear the guitar very well and the drums were very

bustle as was the base. i'm on the high pitch as were completely lost and that's set on standard earplugs like these blocks ear canal. well, there are suitable for blocking out other kinds of ambient doors. for example, when doing d i y, sleeping in traffic and concentrated work, but special attention should be paid to high g valley. the good news is that because they close the ear canal, a very lively, long term use often leads to inflammation because liquids and sheets simply build up their hits. a sheet on david was convinced by the ear plugs with filters, which also passed the band rehearsal test. by his stomach because i could still hear the band completely clearly without a everything just got a touch quieter, but the sound wasn't distorted on to the fish don't whether it's at concerts in pubs, for while using power tools, fearing protection is worth while for everyone,

and prevents permanent damage to the years. david will continue to wear his hearing protection to the only thing that helps with hearing loss is a hearing aid. one of the 1st electric hearing aids belong to the queen of england, 120 years ago. it weighed 12 kiddos. the devices have grown smaller and smaller than you can now height them behind your ear or in the frame of your losses. martin hearing aids individually fidgeted, using us and it can impression the era scanned and a 3 d printer uses this attempted to produce the small plastic mode for the devices can now even be controlled with a smart phone. the hearing aid of the future is being developed at the university of oregon book. it regards to a movement. it's a kind of microphone that follows the direction of your gaze. and if you use the technology should be ready.
