Answers:
i don't know if they wear them!.

with deafness, it's not so much short term bursts of noise that cause deafness, but long term exposure to loud background noise (eg!. a factory)!.

this is because attached to your eardrum are 3 bones (the ossicles) - they transmit the sound to your inner ear!. in the presence of a sudden loud noise there are muscles that pull these bones away to cut the connection so to speak!. this prevents deafness from short term loud noise!.

in the presence of background increased noise (like huming machinery) this protective mechanism doesn't work and you willget sensory hearing loss!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
