There is another use for cans that few realize. Back in Quebec my dentist had a pair for his patients to use. Sound at sufficient levels can block out pain. When our son was four he accidentally scratched the cornea of my right eye. The hospital emergency people put in eye drops that dulled the pain but when it wore off we had nowt in the house. Remembering the dentist I put on the cans and cranked up a classical music station, blessed relief!
