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.
Inner Ear Hair Damage. One of the main reasons for tinnitus is when you damage or injure hairs in your inner ear. When your inner ear senses any sound, very small and delicate hairs move to the sound wave pressure. This makes the ear cells emit an electrical impulse through the nerves in your ear and then on to your brain.
