A member asked:
My bf travels often for work. we spend hours on cell. i use speaker and at times lay phone on chest instead of holding. radiation exposure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No medical question has been tested more than this one. Despite Billions of cell phone users, no research has linked the signals coming from a cell phone to any disease. If you want to be cautious anyway, use the earbuds and Mike that came with the phone.
