Disturbed local blood circulation in the
inner ear (cochlea) can cause a ringing
sensation in the ear. Chronic sound trauma
(permanent exposure to noise) damages the
inner ear and causes the ear to ring. High
blood pressure manifest as ringing in the
ears, too. You can visit an ENT-specialist
if you are concerned about this symptoms.
You can also regularly check your blood
pressure.
