A member asked:

Random loud ringing in left ear then goes away in like 10 seconds what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ear ringing: Usually this transient ringing is not indicative of a serious problem. If the ringing is persistent and will not go away you should see an otolaryngologist and have your hearing checked.
