Tinnitus: Tinnitus (TIN-ih-tus) is the perception of noise or ringing in the ears. A common problem, tinnitus affects about 1 in 5 people. Tinnitus isn't a condition itself — it's a symptom of an underlying condition, such as age-related hearing loss, ear injury or a circulatory system disorder. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/tinnitus/home/ovc-20180349

Tinnitus.: That sounds like tinnitus, which could represent temporary inflammation or permanent damage to the eardrum. Your best bet would be to visit an ENT doctor for a formal evaluation, including a hearing test.
