Do Earplugs Actually Work At Concerts?
If you’ve ever left a concert or music festival with ringing ears, then you’ve probably experience Tinnitus, which is described by the Iowa Carver College of Medicine as the “perception of sound in the absence of it (such as whistling, buzzing or roaring sounds within the ear or head).” This is just one of the symptoms from music induced hearing loss, which occurs when you’re exposed to high volumes of noise.
Concert earplugs work to minimize hearing damage by muffling sounds and reducing the noise, so your ear cannel doesn’t experience it at full force.
