This write up was inspired by a conversation I had with an elderly woman I encountered three days ago while shopping for an earpiece on campus.

As I approached the sales representative to inquire about purchasing an earpiece, the woman overheard me and felt compelled to share her perspective.

She kindly advised me, saying, "Young man, listen to me. The ear was not made to be covered; that's why God left it open like that.

Unlike our mouths, which are meant to be closed when not in use, our ears are designed to remain open due to their unique purpose.

So, I urge you not to constantly use earpieces and allow your ears to be open." I therefore went to research for health hazards of prolonged earpiece usage
