Tinnitus isn't a disease, it's a problem in which a person hears clicking, buzzing, swishing, or ringing on one or both ears. The condition can be caused by medications, tumors, ear trauma, exposure to loud noises, and Meniere's syndrome. The sounds coming from the ear can be so bothersome that it affects the person's quality of life.
Â· Should ringing in the ears occur after exposure to a loud sound, damage has been done and that sound should be avoided or ear protection used in the future. Â· If diminished hearing or a sense of fullness in the ears is experienced after noise exposure, the level of that noise is damaging.
