I'm sure that, like most people today, you have and regularly use
a wide range of electronic devices - smartphones, tablets, laptops
and so on. We rely on these
talk to our friends,
get information, send pictures and videos and ?
lot
more. But 3
you ever think 4
the
dangers to your health of using these devices? It seems that more
60% of us listen to music that is too loud, and
this can damage our ears. Some people text and message all
time, which can cause problems with their fingers
and thumbs. Also, because we regularly look?
small screens, we can sometimes get bad headaches and sore eyes.
And people who use desktop computers every day at work can get
very bad backs. Finally, there 8
a horrible problem
that experts call Text neck. When we text, we look down at our
phone, bending our necks. When we do this 9
much, it can cause neck pain and even damage to the spine. Will
this information stop us using electronic devices? Probably not.
But it might make us think 10
