A member asked:
I just had 3 wisdom teeth taken out. two weeks later i woke up with ringing in both ears. i took 800mg of ibuprofen about 5 times. are those related?

Probably: not. Tinnitus could be side effect of aspirin overdose, but not with ibuprofen, especially at this dose range.

Could be: 800mg is a lot. Tinnitus may be side effect. Return to your Oral Surgeon for reevaluation.
