Headphones, are they detrimental to health?

[something daft already!!]

It occurs to me that I wear headphones an awful lot. I have some in ear Jaybirds that I use when walking or travelling on the bus. When at home and playing games, I have a headset on. Then at work, I also wear a headset.

Am I going to die?

Yes is the answer but will it be caused by headphones? By this I mean, is excessive headphones wearing detrimental? Other than he obvious listening at high volume or walking into traffic.

You should do more research about wireless headphones in particular, if you are worried about the health. There's scientists signing petitions to have the technology regulated. So far everybody makes what they want and that's kind of frightening.

This is just one of many articles about it:

Mine are BT. If there were issues with Bluetooth, I think we might have heard something due to it's wide usage.
