Things that cause hearing loss (and tinnitus) include loud noise, medications that damage the nerves in the ear (ototoxic drugs), impacted earwax, middle ear problems (such as infections and vascular tumors), and aging.
There are several known tinnitus causes. The most common cause of tinnitus is exposure to loud noise. High-volume sounds such as gunshots, loud music or heavy machinery can cause permanent damage to the cochlea hair cells, resulting in ringing in the ears.
