Hi,

There is currently no scientific evidence to suggest that using an iPhone or any other XXXXXXX device with loud music close to the ear can directly cause cancer. However, it is important to be mindful of your listening habits and take precautions to protect your hearing.

Prolonged exposure to loud sounds, including music, can potentially damage your hearing over time. It is recommended to follow safe listening practices, such as keeping the volume at a moderate level and taking regular breaks from using headphones or earphones.

I hope your query is clear now. Thank you.
