How many decibals would you say an upright piano is? Is it enough to cause hearing loss?

I’ve been playing guitar lately and I just went back to my piano and I noticed ‘damn this thing is loud’. I have sensitive ears and I now have hopefully temporary hearing dullness which should last about 24 hours.

What are ways to protect me/you from hearing loss? I am a DJ and I usually DJ 2-3 times a month and I want to keep my hearing as long as possible. I am also 12 and I cant afford to lose a lot of my hearing while im 21 because I will loose many experinces in my life. I also go to about 5 concerts a year and the music gets REALLY LOUD. I know I could but earplugs but most of them block out most of the frequincies. Any suggestions?
