Always a good time to mention that hearing damage is cumulative and irreversible. If it hurts, you need to put earplugs in. Consistent noise can damage your hearing at lower levels than a single loud noise, which means you still might need hearing protection to do things like use saws or run air compressors.
And while we can’t yet reverse hearing damage, that’s no excuse to not protect your ears if you’ve already done damage. We can’t fix if, but you can still make it worse with repeated exposure.
