default
Posted on Wed, 4 Jun 2014
Question: Please help me understand why when I use a XXXXXXX phone I get pain in my head on the same side as the phone? The pain lasts for the duration of the call and up to 5 minutes afterwards. I do not experience any other pains in my body that compare and the pain happens only when I use a XXXXXXX phone.

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Dear Ms,
Its one of the most common problem experienced by XXXXXXX phone users.
The cause is because of following two reasons
1. The electro-magnetic waves emitted by XXXXXXX phone device affects the cortical layer of brain affecting its action potential, though no harmful effect has been proved conclusively in view of increase malignancy but the effect is sufficient enough to cause headache in individuals who are prone to it.
2. Due to use of XXXXXXX during call, there is increase in temperature of device above the skin temperature, this may decrease the potential of nerves to pain and may be the cause for pain.

The solution to this problem is simple, using headset will solve this problem and will also decrease radiation exposure significantly. I had also experienced similar problem and with use of headset I am fine.

In Case you require any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Take Care
