harvey,


Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears can be caused by many things- ear infection, fluid in the ears, medications, aging, and trauma. Treatment depends on what the cause may be, although in many cases there is no specific treatment. Sometimes it just simply goes away. You can read more information about tinnitus here

You will need to see your doctor for an exam and testing to determine the exact cause, so the proper treatment can be given.
