Does your earphone hurt your ear?
I am not talking about hurting the eardrum due to prolonged exposure to high volume or anything. I am asking whether any of you felt pain from the physical shape of the earphones.
When I wear Monster Turbine or Skullcandy FMJ, the rear side of the phone touches my left ear, and it can hurt after an hour or so. In anatomical terms, it's around concha and antitragus parts of the ear.
My left ear is shaped differently from my right ear. My left ear's canal forces the earphone to be at an angle, therefore longer and fatter earphones' back tend to apply pressure against my ear. Sometimes wearing the cable over the ear helps.
Anyone else experience that? Any recommendations? Thanks
