duration isn't the issue, it's intensity

if you take your headphones off and hold them about 6" from your head, and you can hear any noise coming from them, then it's too loud

also I congratulate you for still using a walkman instead of a stupid ipod!.!.!. they are much betterWww@Answer-Health@Com

If you play it all full volume, eventually it will affect your hearing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes if they are too loud!.If you have the volume down soo you can hear trafic and someone speaking to you,no it won't hurt youWww@Answer-Health@Com

Medically i don't know, but from my own experience of drum playing I know noise affects the eardrums, I am now profoundly deaf, caused by this, we were never told to cover our ears when i was a youngster!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
