noises for a prolonged period of time and this can cause them to lose the ability to function properly.
• If you have had an injury to your ear then this can also damage the fibers that help to
transmit sounds waves to the brain causing you to experience ear ringing. Shock and psychological trauma can also
lead to ringing in ears.
• If you are ill and are suffering from either sinusitis or an allergy then this can also make
you more susceptible to ear ringing. This can be either from a direct result of a middle ear infection or as a
result of the medication that you might be taking to cure your illness. Prolonged use of certain medications can
cause ringing in ears due to the mucous in the ear thickening over time.

of the inner ear, sufferers of this disease will find themselves experiencing the symptoms of ringing in ears on a regular basis.
