you wasn't stood next to a speaker at a gig were you? 😉
i don't think there is anything you can do except wait...some people have it constantly throughout their lives. it must be doing your head in!
If it doesn't go away, go see a doctor. But I hope it goes away today.

Originally posted by wucky3i had a mis-spent youth standing next to speaker stacks in clubs and gigs, and i now have permanent tinnitus in both ears. while it doesn't affect me most of the time, i can never again enjoy a perfect silence - there is a constant ringing in my ears that becomes obvious when ambient noise dips below a certain level.

now i'm not one to tell folk how to live their lives, but if i could have my time again i'd have invested in a good pair of earplugs before i went to all those gigs...

Any got a clue how to get rid of that ??

What generally helps is sticking your hand in an open flame. Hurts like hell, but you stop hearing the ringing.
