Exposure to loud noises can damage the specialized hair cells in the inner ear that convert sound into signals to the brain. The result is hearing loss or ringing in the ears, called tinnitus. Often, the ear recovers from temporary loud noises, much like the skin recovers from minor sunburn. But too much exposure can lead to irreparable damage to the hair cells. Unfortunately, Fligor says, some people are more susceptible to this permanent damage, and it's difficult to know who is most sensitive until it's too late. Hearing damage isn't the only potential danger. Research shows that loud noise provokes a stress response in the body, raising blood pressure and causing headaches and sleep disturbances. Chronic exposure to noise may cause problems over the long term, including poor heart health. (Brian Fligor, director of diagnostic audiology at Children's Hospital Boston)
