We all know headphones can be bad for your hearing if you listen to sounds too loudly in such close proximity to your ears. But a BBC report<\/a> suggests that a new health scare could be emerging around the noise-canceling feature that\u2019s hugely popular in modern earphones.<\/p>\n

The article considers whether the technology<\/a> could essentially be rewiring the brains of people who regularly try to tune out pesky background noise using noise cancelation \u2014 reporting on the experience of a 25-year-old British woman who found she had trouble focusing on sounds and was subsequently diagnosed with audio processing disorder (APD). A previous hearing test came back normal. APD is a neurological condition affecting the brain\u2019s ability to understand sounds and spoken words.<\/p>\n

Five audiology departments in the U.K.\u2019s National Health Service told the BBC that there has been a rise in the number of young people referred to them with similar issues related to their ability to process sounds. So the question is: what\u2019s interfering with normal brain functioning in such cases?<\/p>\n

One theory posited by the article is that noise-canceling tech could be leading to the brain forgetting how to filter sounds itself. The patient\u2019s audiologist has also called for more research into the impact of the technology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
