A member asked:
Does cancer risk from cellphone use still hold true if you use a bluetooth headset?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unknown: The risk of cancer from cellphone use is not clear or settled...Using a headset would theoretically reduce the risk of harmful radiation and thus reduce the chances of developing cancer...No proof that this is the case though.
