stop listening and have your hearing checked. The
louder the volume, the less time is required before
your hearing could be aected. Hearing experts
suggest that to protect your hearing:

headphones, speakers, or earpieces at
high volume.
 Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy
surroundings.
 Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people
