Ringing in the ear or ears currently affects about 60 million people in the US today. That high-pitched ringing in the ears is not a disease, but it is a symptom of an underlying problem.
The sound or pitch may differ from person to person, but it all adds up to the same thing … and it’s called “tinnitus.”
So if you suffer from ear noise, you can be sure that you are not alone. In reality, most people experience ringing in the ear at some point in their life for various reasons, but it is usually temporary and therefore does not bother them.
Perhaps you are familiar with that ringing you hear right after a loud bang or other noise. But the noise or ringing in the ears sooner or later disappears. Or at least for most people it does. Sometimes constant exposure to loud noises can leave you with a permanent case of tinnitus.
So when you attend those loud concerts or play the music in your car, or work with a jackhammer all day, your ears end up ringing and then after a few hours or days the noise in your ears goes away … to some people .
I hate to ruin your day, but you must understand that ear damage can be cumulative. In other words, constant exposure to loud noise can make it worse with each session.
Why? Because every time you expose your ears to these noises, a small amount of damage occurs that continues to build up to become a chronic case of tinnitus (ringing in the ears). This repeated assault on your ears can also end up causing high frequency hearing loss and other hearing impairments.
And so every time you work a job where there is constant loud noise without wearing hearing protection, the damage accumulates. And every time you hear that loud music, the damage accumulates … and the tinnitus gets worse … and that ringing in the ears can become permanent.
** What happens if the tinnitus becomes permanent? **
And what if that ringing in your ears decides to make a permanent home in your head? Misery and frustration that, if severe enough, can even deprive you of your sleep. Tinnitus can really affect your life in a negative way. For many people, that constant ringing in the ears can be debilitating. Don’t let this happen to you.
If you have chronic tinnitus, it is time to find some relief. The most successful ear noise treatments available are natural and affective. So, do your research and find out what is available to alleviate tinnitus.
