Yes there is something you can do. Depending on what you prefer you can either go to an Ear Nose and Throat specialist who will examine your ears and recommend treatment. The other option is using ear candles, also called coning.
If you would like more information you can check out this website. www.lrwhandmadecreations.com I use candling for me and my family with wonderful results.

I have the same thing!! Check out this website for more information. I have had ringing in my ears for as long as I can remember. I was born with an underbite (bottom jaw protrudes out further than the top jaw) and was told that the misalignment of my jaw is what ultimately effected the ringing in my ears. Even though I have had my jaw corrected, I still have ringing in my ears and would have to have surgery to correct it.

You need to see a Doctor. That's called Tinnitus (ringing in the ears), or ask your Doctor to refer you to see an Ear Nose and Throat Doctor. Nope, it's not normal..if you keep ignoring it, you'll have hearing loss. Good luck!

Sorry, It's called tinnitus. Check out www.ata.org. I have it...it has caused hearing loss also. When it first happened, I couldn't sleep for months...thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown. I went to see an ear, nose & throat specialist to have my hearing checked. Good luck!

Tinnitis,
There could be more than one reason for this.
It is a condition that is often treated by traditional chinese medicine (acupuncture and herbs) but is difficult to treat.
Good luck, there might be hope.

Hi there,
you might have TMJ which usually is diagnosed by a DENTIST. I'm not sure this is what it is, but it is a good chance it might be because I have it.
I HOPE YOU GET BETTER

Some medicine, like aspirin, can cause tinnitus... Maybe as simple fix as that. I hope:)

its a result of listening to very loud music which in turn damages your ears-- well, any other extremely loud sound that you shouldnt have heard.
