The convenience of using phones while walking may come at an unexpected
cost – an elevated risk of cancer. Emerging research suggests that
individuals engrossed in phone conversations while walking are likelier to
engage in risky behavior, such as crossing roads without proper attention.
This behavior increases the chances of accidents and exposes individuals to
harmful radiation from prolonged phone use. The potential link between
long-term exposure to phone radiation and certain types of cancer is a
cause for concern. Experts advise practicing mindful walking, limiting
phone use, and employing hands-free devices to mitigate these risks.
