In a report filed by StarrNews, Dr. Abdallah said the repeated concussions on a young child’s head can cause damage which can lead to lower intelligence.
“Continuous knocking of the head of young people can affect their IQ and can result in brain injury. Your brain is protected from colliding with your skull by the meninges, if you bash it into something hard enough, that protection won’t be enough,” he said.
He therefore threw a note of caution to those who stay on their phones for longer hours saying, being on the phone for longer hours may affect ones health.
“I will advise that, don’t put the phone on the ear rather use a headset or earpiece for longer calls. The phone produces some radiations when it gets heated and that will affect your health,” Dr Abdallah said.
