Don't worry, ringing is not always a sign of hearing loss, though it can be. It might be a good idea to see a doctor.

just a note. you can have tinnitus without hearing damage as well. it can be triggered by stress or come and go at random for no reason. but the ones who have tinnitus are the ones very aware of how loud everything is. and as for me, coming from a person with tinnitus. do not risk it. it’s okay to be a party pooper and make your friends turn down the volume. its that vs a life of trying to mange tinnitus. tinnitus can be treated with therapy to the point where it’s past someone’s awareness.. but it’s VERY difficult. when it hit me i felt anxiety like i’ve never felt before, many people have killed themselves bc of it and if i’m being honest i could see why. i’m still working on it, i am better but it’s still always there. seriously, just be a lil more protective. caring for your health is cool, you’re just around unhealthy habits most likely.

I doubt there are any deep problems with my hearing. Point is, ringing is disturbing in more ways than one, but I wouldn't count on hearing it occasionally to be that bad a sign.

This may be a bit of a stretch on my part, but I feel that since we all think differently from one another, then that must mean different brain structure. The sounds we hear are what our brains perceive, mostly from the noises our ears capture. This could also come into account from the way our brains handle that noise. For some, their brain probably can’t handle such loud noises, and would instantly wither your ability to hear properly. For the more lucky folks, their brains can be susceptible to the loud sounds more often than usual, thus, they’ll be fine for a long while. TL;DR Our brains are different in handling noises.

possibly. I don't listen to loud music anyways. I may have a lot of headphones and earbuds but I don't blast them.

Good video, but two points I stumbled over: 1. Different headphones have different impedances. That means they play at a different volume when they receive the same signal. So the comparison might have been flawed unless you measured the volume output of the headphones instead of looking how loud your phone is set. 2. You compared the subway station to your office with the term 'twice as loud'. The decibel scale is logarithmic which means that an increase of 10 db is perceived as double the loudness to the human ear. That's all, thank you and keep on creating good content.

I'm 23 and i currently have tinnitus due to a concert, it happened so fast, there was a loud sharp sound and i didn't cover my ears, seconds after i had this terrible ringing and after i got out all i was hearing was muffled sounds. I've done a lot of tests and fortunately (except for the tinnitus itself) i don't have any other damages like, for example a hearing nerve damage. Despite this i had this VERY loud ringing and hissing in my right ear (and a slight on in my left ear) for about a year, i had to wear earplugs almost anytime because every sound hurt my ears. It was like having the whole ocean blasting right in my ear with a loud ringing (almost like a drill) at the 3000Hz frequency. For the first few months i had trouble hearing, sleeping, talking (my own voice was too loud), going out.. the first time i went out to see a movie i had to bring earplugs with me. Many years have passed and fortunately the ringing has improved a lot, now i can do everything i did before (like going to concerts) but unfortunately i still have a subtle ringing in both my ears, it's like a torture. I miss the sound of silence at bed or at night. Despite that often my brain filters out the subtle ringing and this gives me some peace.. be freaking careful guys.

My tinnitus started when I was 18. I'm 24 now. I feel it just gets worst and worst every year, and I just try not to think about how I'm going to deal with this the rest of my life, or if I'll ever actually go deaf. TURN THE VOLUME DOWN.

Read Castor Ringging for a small amount of time... That's called tinnitus. What the other guy was talking about is different most electronics emit a constant sine tone and the tone is less noticeable when said device is doing something or turned off. The sound can be eliminated when there is no power running through the device. Many popular devices emit these high frequency sounds though it is getting less and less common as time goes on. Most devices are completely silent to humans producing sounds that make noise way outside of the frequency ranges we can hear... Though in my case there are strange sounds produced by equipment that I can hear and that show up as noise in the radio spectrum (far outside of all known animals hearing capabilities). This is unusual and chances are you cannot hear what I'm hearing. I also assume the original commentor wasn't referring to these kinds of noises.

It’s important to note that all dB scales are actually not linear, but logarithmic. A 3dB increase is a doubling in power and we perceive an increase of about 10dB to be a doubling in volume. So a jump from say a 50dB SPL office environment to a 100dB SPL subway station is not actually a doubling in perceived loudness but a 5x increase.

As someone who has been suffering with tinnitus and partial hearing loss for a long time, pay attention here. You don't want to damage your ears, it suuuuucks. Ringing in your ears is basically your own personal 24/7 torture that you can never escape from. Protect your hearing!

Good information,, and really good editing!!! keep it up The Verge.

My hearing has been steadily declining over the last 6 years or so. I start to notice the effects 4 years or so ago. My biggest problem is that it's hard to distinguish consonant sounds from each other because of the hearing loss, and I also need more time to proceed what I hear before I connect the sounds to meaning.

I'm a musician and when I rehearse with my band I always use ears protection but the other guys like guitarists don't so I ask them every time aren't you afraid you're losing your hearing?

I used to be in the same boat of not using hearing protection until I started playing with a real drummer in a very small inclosed room, now I wear them no matter where or when doing music.

Yes, noise cancellation is important in headphones. I have Shure se425s (isolating monitor earbuds). They are very good at cancelling sound. I didn't hear the subway behind me, though I felt the breeze (New Yorkers know how refreshing that warm gust of urine vapors and rat farts feels in the summer as the trains go by). I never have my volume over 20%.

Wish I'd seen this earlier I've got Tinnitus now and slight hearing loss 😓

I've got constant tinnitus for three years or so. It's especially nerve wrecking when you're trying to catch a moskito and are not able to locate its sound properly.

But then again, you're only there for about 2 to 3 hours max and there isn't a constant noise because the movie has more quiet scenes sometimes and the action scenes don't really last throughout the entire movie. But, still, those speakers are pretty loud.

I was worried until she said she had to turn her AirPods on max volume. I got those since a year and never ever reached max volume level because everything above 80% hurts my ears. Even driving at 80 mph with all windows down I still got them around 70% and it's loud enough.

Question: When using noise-cancelling headphones solely to noise-cancel to produce white noise, or equal and opposite waveforms to our environment, does this (alone) have the ability to damage our hearing (because it is creating sound which is being sent to our ears), or is it protecting our hearing (because the equal and opposite “cancellation” creates a zero-stress point on the nerve endings? Basically, does the white noise produced by noise-cancelling headphones apply pressure to the nerve endings in the ear, and is it equivalent to that of the surrounding environment? Or does it cancel the pressure of the environment and thus protect the ear in doing so?I’m a music producer, curious as to how it works.

I had my ears tested a few months ago because of ringing, but my evaluation showed i had perfect hearing with a score of 10 on the audio test. What does that mean?
