When you hear your ears ringing, what are you actually hearing?
September 3rd, 2010 | by admin |Why do you feel the sensation of hearing when there is no noise? If I listen closely, I can always hear my ears ringing. Is that normal?
If this is a prolonged case that doesn’t go away, then you may have tinnitus. It’s an abnormal, yet prevalent condition that shouldn’t be too bad if it doesn’t constantly annoy you. You can go see the doctor to get it checked, but last I heard, any treatments for it are expensive.

It can mean many things, but most prominently that the little ear hairs that allow you to hear are dying. There’s also a disease that I’ve heard of that makes people hear that noise all the time, but I don’t remember what that’s called.

Relax. What your hearing is perfectly normal. It’s the sound of your central nervous system, kind of like a bit of feed-back on a microphone that’s too close to a monitor. If the sound becomes TOO loud or you have other symptoms like pain or fever, that’s another story.
