Tinnitus: I went to a very loud club and noticed severe ringing in my left ear.
Client asked:
Tinnitus: My tinnitus started after I went to a very loud club and noticed severe ringing in my left ear which gradually subsided after about a week.
But, the ringing was then replaced by a sound of crickets which is actually not noticeable when it is silent, but is noticeable when there is some sound. It's as if my ears perceive the incoming sound and then distort it somehow.
Is this a form of tinnitus or something else. When I listen to white noise all I can now hear are crickets in it, whereas previously it offered relief. Please help.

Hello Stephen,
It is actually quite scary the damage that can happen to the inner ear structures as a result of exposure to loud noise. Tinnitus due to exposure to loud noise is actually a very common cause of tinnitus.There are thousands of tiny hairs situated in the cochlea that move when you perceive noise.
As and when an external noise is picked up the tiny hairs sway and send impulses through the auditory nerve which is interpreted as a sound by your brain.
The agitation of the hairs in the cochlea can be likened to a field of long grass moving in tune with the wind.
The hairs in the inner ear are easily broken from the huge pressures generated by sudden bursts of sounds. Obviously those that are unfortunate enough to work in a very loud environment or visit loud pubs over a period of time will suffer further damage.
These delicate organs can also be damaged from a knock on the head. If damage occurs and those tiny hairs are damaged or bent they can send random signals to the brain which are interpreted as a sound even though none is present.
Noise induced cochlear damage tinnitus which can cause a ringing in the ears often is a result of ear wax removals, ear candling, swimming accidents, hurting yourself playing sports, head or dental surgery.
Hearing loss is incurable nevertheless the tinnitus remedies have been very successful at reducing the tinnitus levels from a damaged cohlea.
The severe ringing that you suffered, which subsided but left you with this noise that sounds like crickets defintely confirms that you have cochlea damage induced tinnitus. Tinnitus as a result of cochlea damage normally always results in hearing loss in the higher frequencies, as well.
