This ringing of the ears is known as tinnitus and can
disrupt your life if severe. The common cause of ringing
in the ears is damage from noise.

Have you ever been to a loud concert?

A loud ballgame with blasting music?

An airport where the planes are coming in and out?

A construction site?

A set of earphones connected to loud music or dialogue?

Any and all of these can lead to ringing in the ears, but
the most common cause is noise damage, hands down.

 
 
I can actually give you some insight into what actually happens when cochlea

damage occurs as a result of exposure to noise.
 
There are some of the fifteen thousand microscopic sensory hair

cells in the the Organ of Corti which are very fragile and are

easily damaged.
 
There are three tiny bones that vibrate and act as amplifiers, in

fact probably the beat amplifiers ever invented.
  


If you look at the illustration shown
you will get a better idea of what I am talking about.
 
When the movement of the tiny bones
in the middle ear vibrate the oval window of the cochlea, waves are
created in the fluid surrounding the cochlea.
 
These waves bend the basilar membrane in place corresponding to specific frequencies.
 

Hair cells in those places then brush against the overlying tectorial membrane (shown in blue) generating an electrical impulse which gets sent to the brain.The brain interprets those electrical impulses as sound. The nerve endings are shown in yellow in the illustration.
 
When the tiny hairs and nerve
endings become damaged as a result of exposure to noise, high frequency
hearing loss and tinnitus often results.
