I will just be sitting here and I hear this loud ringing thing in my head and it kind of scares me. I head it might be from listening to music too loud, I kind of tend to do that, but Does anyone else feel this ringing thing? -------------------- Never regret anything, because it was meant to happen.

It's more a monotone whistling than a ringing, but I guess it's the same. For me, it goes away after a few minutes at most, but it's still annoying. (Oh, by the way, it just started again. Speak of the devil. :P ) Afaik, tinnitus is actually the medical term used. I believe it's the symptom of certain hearing disorders.

demonslay3r Guardian Member # 2238	written Tuesday, August 24 2004 15:24 Profile Homepage #12 I'm no doctor, but I believe tinnitus is usually associated with both a loud ringing and a disorientation effect (dizziness). As for the ringing, it is most likely the loud music. I play in a hard-rock band myself, and have always loved the genre, so I get it all the time. I don't think it's too serious, though it might have long term effects; ie bad hearing when you get old. -------------------- The critics agree! Demonslayer is "a five star hit!" raves TIMES Weekly!

Garrison Agent Member # 2820	written Tuesday, August 24 2004 15:35 Profile #13 Extremely loud noises and ear trauma can cause Tinnitus, and it usually goes away after a while. It is natural, but shouldn't occur more than once a day, and even then it is a little too frequent. Most of the time the ringing will simply impair hearing, but in really bad cases, you can't hear. But I think that is more of nerve damage. This is probably just me, but when I exercise and just plop myself down to rest, then I get up really fast, the blood drains out of my head and I get dizzy and the ringing comes to my ears for about 10 seconds. -------------------- What do I put here? -Garrison Posts: 1415 \| Registered: Thursday, March 27 2003 08:00
Sound Effect Shock Trooper Member # 1723	written Tuesday, August 24 2004 15:48 Profile #14 Rapid blood pressure changes or other changes in the pressure in your ears also cause a very temporary ringing effect. If you have a cold or other such illness that will cause sinus congestion, you can frequently experience a ringing due to pressure changes in your inner ear. As you age and are exposed to loud sounds, your hearing will slowly decay and the ringing will increase. Its okay, everyone has it. If you don't have any ringing, it just means you haven't been exposed to much loud noise, or you just aren't perceptive enough to pick up on the ringing. -------------------- I hate signatures.
