Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Cell phone causes damage and irritation to the hair cells of the cochlea and the heat emitted by the battery is detrimental for the ear. Please do not use cell phones for a long period of time. Take a vitamin tablet Neurobion forte once daily for 2 weeks.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
