Why does our hearing capacity reduce when we’re stretching?
In: Biology
It shouldn’t reduce while you’re just stretching, but if you’re stretching and yawning that triggers the Tensor Typani muscles. These are a set of muscles in your ear that are responsible for dampening certain sounds, for example, the sounds of you chewing. They also respond to really loud noises to help prevent hearing damage if memory serves, but naturally can’t overcome anything overly loud.
