A member asked:

My ear are ringing when i lie down?

Dr. Ravi Samy answered

Tinnitus: Tinnitus is typically worse when the room is quiet. I would recommend sleeping with some background white noise. Minimize loud noise exposure. Consider getting a hearing test and seeing an otolaryngologist. Stress reduction techniques, including prayer, can help, reduce adverse psychological consequences.
