Answer 4

It might be someone next door or something in your house making that noise. I have experienced that before and then I think later it faded away.

Answer 5

i dont understand.....

is it high, or low ????

I hear a high pitched "EEEEEEEEEEE" in my head.....

sometimes when it's really quiet around, I'll hear it, and it's like torture.  sometimes I'll hear that noise when electrical devices are on.....

i even hear it when my ears are plugged

I've been told this is the sound of losing your hearing.

it sounds like its in your head, because your ears are on both sides of your head..... so when u hear a sound it sounds like its coming from inside your head.

Answer 6

Well....

The ringing in ears is called 'Tinnitus.' Without getting into its complicated details I can claim that the condition is very much - 100% - curable.

Obtain 100% pure peppermint oil from a herbal store.  Do not buy the branded variety - almost always something is added to the branded ones thereby reducing its efficacy.   Instill 1-2 drops in one ear with a dropper before sleeping.  Say, if you have put the oil in the left ear then lay / sleep on your right side to prevent the oil from slipping out of the ear.  On the next night, alternate the ear.  You will have to use it for sometime for benefits to occur.  Most natural remedies, unlike allopathic treatments, take time to bring the affected organ to normality.

Pure peppermint oil is never to be used in excess.  It has the potential to literally burn exposed / cut tissues.  The oil is also useful in partial deafness when used for a substantial period of time.

Don't be anxious or too worried about the condition. In most cases, it is quite a harmless accompaniment throughout life unless there is an underlying heart problem.

Lastly, why use headphones?  Why cause yourself some debilitating condition?  The human ear has not been designed to bear loud sounds.  It has a certain threshold beyond which irreversible damage begins to set in.  Think about your later years...  The more you look after your body in its youth the more it will serve you later.
