A member asked:
Can ear infections lead to tinnitus? can an ear infection cause a high pitched noise in one's ear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Inner ear infection can lead to ringing (tinnitus) as it affects the semicircular canals. Fluid behind the ear occurs as a result of healing and can lead to a funny sound as well...Chiropractic, homeopathic, craniosacral therapies can all help realign the inner ear and promote drainage of the fluid and spped healing.
