Therefore, this database was conducted such as: the personality of adolescents, the daily hours in which they use it, etc. This and more will help us determine to what degree of cell phone addiction are teenagers and what consequences produces mobile phone addiction.
The cell phone has become part of us and for many people, an addiction. A person sees his cell phone at least 150 times a day or some of many times more.

For those who do not realize how serious addiction is and believe they are rumors or exaggerations;We have Mexico that it is one of the countries in which the use of cell phone in clasused by teenager between 29 and 15 years.
But this situation does not happen only in Mexico but throughout the world. Just as he other experts have spoken about this issue as well as parents and teachers to guide not only teenagers, but also children to have more self-control in the daily use of cell phones. Excessive cellular use brings great physical consequences such as: carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis and tension headache are some of the physical consequences due to the excess of cellular use addiction is a psychiatric disorder known as nomophobia and this can generate from discomfortIn the eyes, joints, bones and ears until reaching depression, anxiety and insomnia.

According to professionals, the symptoms presented by adolescents addicted to the cell phone: that when cell phones are removed they have humor changes and calm down when they return them when they do not turn off the cell phone at night or when they do not release at any time when they present any emotionAnd they take refuge watching the cell phone. Also cell consumption depends on the sex of the person in the case of boys vary depending on their character, network games, etc. And on the other side by girls due to the difficulty of interacting with others, due to low self – esteem, by fashion, etc.
There are studies that have proven that the games of the network and the app intervene a lot in the addiction of adolescents, since having so many entertainment means it is impossible for a teenager to get bored and because of this I could cause the problems mentioned above.
Fernando Summers, CEO concludes that although the cell phone is indispensable, it is indispensable in the routine of human beings, we should not lose sight that the need to use it with consciousness to avoid pathologies derived from its high consumption. The whole mute not only teenagers spend a lot of time on the cell phone, but on many occasions if it is necessary to use it, so you have to raise awareness of the cell phone mode. Although there are a lot.
