How long does ringing in ears last after serous otitis media has cleared? i still have ringing after almost all of the fluid is gone, a little worried

Timnitis: It does not seem to be the case. Either serous otitis not resolved completely or some other pathology. See a ENT specialist.

It can vary: It can take months sometimes, or maybe more, there is a great deal of individual variation. Avoiding stimulants like coffee, cigarettes, can help and some medications can also increase the tinnitus. If it is very bothersome it may be wise to discuss this with your doctor.
