One of the most common cause for tinnitus is Inner ear cell damage. Your inner ear has tiny, delicate hairs that moves in relation to sound wave pressure. This movement triggers your inner ear cells to release a certain electrical signal from your auditory nerve (which is in your ear) to your brain. These signals are the interpreted by your brain as sound. If these hairs inside the inner ear are broken or bent, then they can leak or send out random electrical signals to your brain, thus causing you to hear sound even with the absence of it.
Some other ear – related problems that cause of tinnitus include:
Age related hearing loss. For most people, age worsens hearing conditions. Hearing loss can cause tinnitus, and this type of hearing loss is called presbycusis.
Exposure to high levels of noise. Extremely loud noises can damage your hearing. Most common sources of noise that cause hearing loss are fromheavy equipment, machines and fire arms. Portable music devices too can cause hearing loss when it is played loudly for long durations.
Short term exposure to high levels of noise, like disco parties or rock concerts can cause temporary tinnitus, but excessive and long term exposure can cause permanent damage.
Earwax Blockage. The earwax inside your ears protects the ear canal by slowing bacterial growth and trapping dirt. However, too much earwax can accumulate, and can become too hard to be naturally washed away. When this happens, it can cause problems in hearing and tinnitus.
Ear Bone Changes. The bones in the middle ear can stiffen, and can cause tinnitus. This abnormal ear bone growth is usually hereditary and runs in families.
Meniere’s Disease. Meniere’s disease is an inner ear disorder which is supposedly caused by pressure due to inner ear fluid or inner ear fluid composition.
