Yesterday i heard a loud alarm and my ears were then making a noise it was annoying. now when i make just a little bit of loud noise it feels thesame?

Noise sensitivity: After an exposure to loud noise your ears are going to be more sensitive for several hours to days. I would recommend using ears plugs for the next couple to days to help protect your ears. Cotton balls will work if you don't have ears plugs
