You may have a condition called Tinnitus.  Variously pronounced Tin I tus, or  Tin ee tus.  It can be caused by several things.  Among them are: insult or injury to hearing or certain drugs.  Aspirin will cause it on a temporary basis.  It can get very loud.  William Shatner (Captain Kirk) once head of the Tinnitus Foundation, complains of loud roaring in his ears.  It is annoying but no real threat.  I have it from time to time.  See a doctor for latest treatments.

Ringing of the ear is called Tinnitus.\nInside your inner ear, thousands of auditory cells maintain an electrical charge. Microscopic hairs form a fringe on the surface of each auditory cell. When they're healthy, these hairs move in relation to the pressure of sound waves. The movement triggers the cell to discharge electricity through the auditory nerve. Your brain interprets these signals as sound.\n\nIf the delicate hairs inside your inner ear are bent or broken, they move randomly in a constant state of irritation. Unable to hold their charge, the auditory cells "leak" random electrical impulses to your brain as noise.\n\nDamage to auditory cells in your inner ear most commonly results from:\n\nAge-related hearing loss (presbycusis). This process usually begins around age 60. \nNoise-related damage to your inner ear. This erosion of your hearing ability may result from excessive exposure to loud noise over a long period of time. Tractors, chain saws and weapons are common sources of noise-related hearing loss. Portable music devices, such as MP3 players or iPods, may become a common source of noise-related hearing loss in the future if people play these devices loudly for long periods. \nOther causes of tinnitus may include:\n\nLong-term use of certain medications. Aspirin used in large doses and certain types of antibiotics can affect inner ear cells. Often the unwanted noise disappears when you stop using these drugs. \nChanges in ear bones. Stiffening of the bones in your middle ear (otosclerosis) may affect your hearing. \nInjury. Trauma to your head or neck can damage your inner ear. \nCertain disorders of your blood vessels can cause a type of tinnitus called pulsatile tinnitus. These may include:\n\nAtherosclerosis. With age and buildup of cholesterol and other fatty deposits, major blood vessels close to your middle and inner ear lose some of their elasticity — the ability to flex or expand slightly with each heartbeat. That causes blood flow to become more forceful and sometimes more turbulent, making it easier for your ear to detect the beats. \nHigh blood pressure. Hypertension and factors that increase blood pressure, such as stress, alcohol and caffeine, can make the sound more noticeable. Repositioning your head usually causes the sound to disappear. \nTurbulent blood flow. Narrowing or kinking in a carotid artery or jugular vein can cause turbulent blood flow and head noise. \nMalformation of capillaries. A condition called A-V malformation, which occurs in the connections between arteries and veins, can result in head noise. \nHead and neck tumors. Tinnitus may be a symptom of a tumor in your head or neck.  \n\nSo as not to cause panic.  Maybe it's just a simple case of water trapped in your ear. or an infection called otitis media.  It would be prudent for you to go see an EENT for proper diagnosis. and treatment.  All you need might only be an ear irrigation.\n\nTinnitus is usually caused by a head injury, an infection, such as colds or sinus infection or sinusitis, a disease or exposure to loud sounds such as gunshots and explosions.\n\nIt can be a sign of hearing loss, or it can result from head injuries, or diseases that range from the common cold to diabetes. People who work with noisy equipment, such as power tools, can also get it. Or tinnitus may be initiated by a single loud noise, such as a gunshot or an explosion. It can also be a symptom of almost any ear disorder, including the following:\n\n Ear infections \n Blocked ear canal \n Blocked eustachian tube \n Otosolerosis \n Tumors of the middle ear \n Meniere's disease \n Damage to the ear caused by drugs (such as aspirin and some antibiotics) \n Hearing loss \n Blast injury from a blast or explosion \n\nTinnitus may also occur with other disorders such as anemia, heart and blood vessel disorders including hypertension and arteriosclerosis, and low thyroid hormone levels in the blood (hypothyroidism).\n\nA wide variety

Taken from Anderson, Brett, The treble and the damage done…\nVol. 20, Twin Cities Reader, 01-11-1995, pp 15. Sometimes my ears ring dull and low. I hear something that sounds like a cross between the hum of a Hammond organ and the purr of a well-tuned luxury car. Other times the noise is a faint, high squeal that alternately surges and recedes like surf. Most often, my head hisses like the inside of seashell, causing a cool sensation that feels like my ears are leaking gas. As unpredictable as the nature of my own private echoes might be, it’s certain that I will awake from a night spent sucking down loud rock music with a hangover that has nothing to do with booze.\n\nI’m not alone.\n\n“What happens is the hair cells are damaged, but they’re not dead,” Dr. Sam Levine (an otolarynologist) explains. “As they’re damaged, you lose some of your hearing. Most of the time, if you get out of the environment, your hair cells will recover somewhat. Each day, it [your hearing] comes back, but not as good as it did the day before. Eventually, over a long period of time, hair cells are permanently damaged instead of temporarily damaged.”\n\nMost people would rather believe that hearing loss is like car accidents, violent crime and tax audits - something that affects other people. There are some famous cases. Who guitarist

have your ears checked by an EENT specialist.  you might have an inner ear infection or meniere's disease.  i also have the same problem for years already & the docs can't give a solution to it.

You are not losing your hearing, but you will hear a little less due to the ringing. It is the air rushing in your ear canal It is called Tinnitus, ( I think I spelled it right )nerve transmits impules to the brain it is the vibration produced from the external soundswaves ( like air) rushing. I have it ,for the past 7 years now.\nBut your Dr. can tell you more.

Could be anything from an inner ear infection, to MS. Go see a doctor.

I think that what you are experiencing is normal since you just had the procedure done a couple days ago.  Keep your hands clean when touching your ear-lopes and use an alcohol swap to clean the area each day, and your ears should feel fine in a few more days.  Don't wear the same earrings all the time without removing them ever so often just to let the hole heal around it, not over it.  Too, wear good quality sterling silver or 12 k gold or better posts to prevent infection.  And, lastly don't share pierced earrings with friends

"Tinnitus is the medical term for ringing in the ears and it is a very common phenomenon. Nearly 36 million Americans suffer from this tinnitus which may come and go, or you may be aware of a continuous sound. It can vary in pitch from a low roar to a high squeal or whine, and you may hear it in one or both ears. When the ringing is constant, it can be annoying and distracting. More than seven million people are afflicted so severely that they cannot lead normal lives.\n\nMost tinnitus comes from damage to the microscopic endings of the hearing nerve in the inner ear. The health of these nerve endings is important for acute hearing, and injury to them brings on hearing loss and often tinnitus. If you are older, advancing age is generally accompanied by a certain amount of hearing nerve impairment and tinnitus. If you are younger, exposure to loud noise is probably the leading cause of tinnitus, and often damages hearing as well.\n\nTinnitus may also be caused by allergy, high or low blood pressure (blood circulation problems), a tumor, diabetes, thyroid problems, injury to the head or neck, and a variety of other causes including medications such as anti-inflammatories, antibiotics, sedatives, antidepressants, and aspirin. If you take aspirin and your ears ring, talk to your doctor about dosage in relation to your size.\n\nTreatment will be quite different in each case of tinnitus. It is important to see an otolaryngologist to investigate the cause of your tinnitus so that the best treatment can be determined."\n\n\n\nThe website below contains a lot more information on ringing in the ear.

Could be any number of things, have somebody who knows what they´re looking at just check them out. \nI could be just clogged up with cerumen (earwax) which is easily removed or it could be something really serious like a blocked artery to your hearing organ that is causing this (sort of like a coronary just in your ear). \nYes, it could very well be dust from the fiberglass factory but you need to go see a doctor within the next couple of days, preferrably and ENT specialist. \nHope it turns out to be something harmless and easy to take care of!

I wonder what volume you play your music.. may be the factor..Causes considerable irritation to the nerves you mention with your symptoms.. suggesting you are having a problem that us sub acute and the stress of the music takes it into the acute state.

The most common cause of tinnitus is damage caused by loud noises, and that never goes away.  It can also be caused by the aforementioned problems, or infections. \n\nHas it started recently or has it been a while and you don't really know when it started?  Do you have any other problems with balance, nerves, your hearing or your sinuses? Are you running a fever? You can go to a doctor, but if you don't have more to tell him than what you told us, she/he probably won't be able to do much about it.

Very seriously, you need to visit a doctor. There are many things that can cause this & none of them good. When it comes down to it, the doctor is going to have to determine what the problem is &, only then, will he or she be able to do something to help you.\n\nI don't want to scare you but the ringing sensations can actually signal something very serious so you shouldn't take it lightly...\n\nGood luck!

It sounds like tinnitus.  It can be caused by many things.  Everyone experiences it at one stage or another in life - like when coming back from a rock concert or something.  Some times it can be related to other health problems, so it might be worth a visit to the doctor to see if it can be linked to any other problems you may have.  \n\nIf it IS tinnitus, at this stage, there is no cure for it.  There are some drugs on the market, but some of the most well known like Trebonin are actually severely over-hyped and have not had the success they claim to have had.  I found this out from my doctor when I went to enquire about using it myself!

As long as its not a "ringing". That is a symptom of high blood pressure at times.  Squeaking may be fluid in the ear....not sure. Call your doctor to be sure.

Yes, I agree that your symptoms sound like sinusitis (or a sinus infection, which can cause sinusitis).
