Tinnitis: Wax could be causing this.Most likely an inner ear infection--get the ears checked out.Put mineral oil drops in the ears--this will help clean the wax if that is the cause.If it does not help see an ENT doctor.

Some reading for you: You can look at treating ear wax; http://patient.info/health/earwax-leaflet, eustachian tube dysfunction; http://patient.info/health/ears-and-flying or middle ear infection (see doctor) If the ringing sound 'tinnitus' persists then see http://patient.info/health/tinnitus-leaflet for some more information.
