Hearing aids and radiation

@Doc_Jake said:

if you use a cell phone or wifi don’'t worry about the HAs.

I read that radiation can potentially cause tumors:

that’s why I want to avoid it as much as possible.

I don’t think that the extra radiation doesen’t matter when I already use a cell phone (which I don’t put on my head 14 hours a day, like a hearing aid). Isn’t that like saying, if you already smoke a package of cigarettes a day don’t worry about smoking another five cigarettes? The hearing aids are in the ear, next to the brain and we wear them all day long. I think the best way is to reduce the radiation as much as possible.

Most wireless hearing aids use near-field magnetic induction (NFMI) and a ferrite rod antenna to communicate with each other. These work in the 3 to 15 MHz range. Other hearing aids use radio frequency (RF) and a custom-designed antenna; they operate in the 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz ISM bands.

Do you know which of both radiation types should I be more concerned about?

Do the hearing aids use pulsed signals of the kind addressed here:

Can you say that with other words (I don’t understand it, I’m german and it’s not easy for me to write in english let alone understand everything. I translate what I write with an online dictionary.
