Sound stimulates tiny hair-like cells in your inner ear which send messages to your brain. Like wind blowing in a tree - a little is alright - between gusts of wind the tree springs back into its normal position. However if the wind blows too hard or for too long the tree will become permanently bent and may break.
Similarly, the hair-like cells are damaged by too much noise for too long. While at first, given enough quiet, the cells may recover, repeated noise will lead to permanent damage. Often damage occurs gradually over a number of years and remains unnoticed until it is too late. The damaged cells can no longer send the messages to the brain and hearing is lost. Extremely loud noises can cause immediate lasting damage. The sudden burst of energy in noises such as hammering or gunshots can cause this type of damage.
