Could Tinnitus (Ringing in My Ears) Be a Sign that the People Are Not Good Yet?

I think tinnitus is a sign that I'm listening 'too hard'---my brain so-wanting to hear something that it makes up its own sound and lets me go merrily on my way ... could be why YOUR ears ring after you hear a loud BANG (because they're expecting the banging to continue).
I don't hear many loud BANGs nowadays---mostly just the quiet-hum of my PC, the occasional running of my AC/heater, the television sound-&-music for a few hours a day, and the sounds of the neighborhood (loud cars with too-loud stereos driving by, the too-loud party goin` on at the bar a couple blocks away, the random operations of the car-wash across the street & -down at the corner)
But is my brain judging it all as "unworthy," judging the only worthy sound to be the whisper of the ringing it plays in my ears?

My nearest cousin had had tinnitus for years and he has gone to doctors, psychologists and has tried alternative medicine to get rid of it. Nothing has helped. I wish something happened to make the tinnitus disappear. His quality of life is not as good as it shoud due to this.

All we can do is pray this Scripture for him---Colossians 1:9-14. "Search" it!

I also get that but not often and it would only last for a couple of seconds. When I went to my ENT he checked my ears and he said its doing fine. I guess because I would listen to my iPod and have my earphones on, sometimes to the point that my ears start to hurt not because of the loud music, but because the earphones itself hurt my ear. Even those tiny ones that are seem mild when attached to the ears still irritate my ears.

My dad once had tinnitus. And I think it took him about a month or two before it was completely gone. Have you gone to the doctor to have your ears checked? he'd surely prescribe you something to get rid of it. Meanwhile, if you still have the ringing in your ears, try covering your ears to eliminate the sound.

So how do you improve your iron-deficiency? Does that make your tinnitus lessen?

No, they are good but the problem is your ear maybe you are always fun of earphone attached to you ear listening good music. Why not consult an ear special to check your ear.
