Heart problems

RADIATION from cell phones is not only associated
with cancer but also with chronic diseases like heart
problems. According to a study published in the
European Journal of Oncology, radiations emitted by
cordless phones, including mobiles, contribute to
abnormalities in heart function. Results reported that radiation causes the red blood cells to seep
haemoglobin and lead to heart complications.

Infertility

Beware men! Your phone can even make you
infertile. As of now, there’s enough evidence to show
that mobile phone radiation decreases sperm count
in male rats. To identify whether the same holds true in humans, Wdowiak and colleagues carried out a research, which revealed that the group of men who used mobile phones had a decreased sperm cell count in their semen, leading to infertility.

Hearing impairment

Today, every alternate person on the street has
earphones plugged in. But that’s not the only reason
why hearing loss is increasing in youths and adults.
Your mobile radiation is an additional factor that’s
making you deaf. Studies report that long-term
exposure to electromagnetic field from cell phones
contributes to reducing hearing function. A study by
Oktay and Dasdag showed that people who spent
approximately two hours on phone calls every day
were at a higher risk of impaired hearing compared
to moderate users who spent 10 to 20 minutes.

Eye problems

A lot of people use their mobiles to read e-books; do
web surfing, etc. apart from texting. When you do so, the glaring screen and small font size put a lot of
strain on your eyes, especially if you’re reading in the dark. Mobile devices have smaller screens so you tend to squint or open up your eyes wide and blink lesser number of times. This can cause dry eyes, irritation and reddening.

Skin allergies

Most mobile phones have a typical metallic sheen to
make them look more attractive. Such phones
contain potential skin allergens like nickel, chromium and cobalt, which cause cell phone dermatitis. A study by Marcella Aquino and colleagues tested 72 cell phones for the presence of nickel and cobalt.
According to the results, about 29.4 per cent of
Blackberry models were tested positive for nickel,
90.5 per cent of flip phones were positive for nickel
and about 52 per cent of flip phones had cobalt.

Infections

Avoid using your cell phones in the toilet. Cell phones not only serve as a home for your valuable data but also carry millions of infectious organisms. A study found that mobile devices are highly contaminated
with organisms from faecal origin. They are a niche
for several germs like E.coli (known to cause vomiting and diarrhoea) and Staphylococcus aureus (known to cause skin infections).

Stress

The general desperate nature of people to be
available 24/7 on their mobiles is responsible for
their increasing stress levels.
