Other medical conditions that can create ringing in your ears include: 1  age-related hearing loss. 2  muscle spasms in your middle ear. 3  Meniereâs disease (an inner ear condition that affects hearing and balance). 4  temperomandibular joint disorders that cause chronic pain in your jaw and head.
Sometimes, your inner ear sustains damage, altering the way your brain processes sound. Damage to your eardrums or the tiny bones in your middle ear can also interfere with the proper conduction of sound. Tumors in the ear or on the auditory nerve may also cause ringing in the ears. Exposure to very loud sounds on a regular basis can cause tinnitus in some people.
