Ухо – это природный слуховой аппарат, говорит врач аталаринголог В. Чистова, и все проблемы с ним могут привести к потере слуха, частичной или полной.
The ear is a natural hearing aid, says athalaryngologist V. Chistova, and all problems with it can lead to hearing loss, partial or complete.
Но уши не берегут ни родителей, ни малыши. По словам В. Чистовой, у школьников чаще встречаются акустические травмы, которые вообще-то считаются заболеванием подводников, вынужденных резко всплывать с большой глубины.
But neither parents nor children protect their ears. According to V. Chistova, schoolchildren are more likely to experience acoustic injuries, which are generally considered a disease of submariners who are forced to emerge abruptly from great depths.
