Tinnitus can have a different sound to individuals. It might be a ringing sound, a swishing sound, or possibly something else. Schedule an appointment with an Audiologist, and be evaluated.

High decibel explosions commonly can adversely affect hearing and constant perception of noise in the ears can follow such an event. Often tinnitus is associated with hearing loss. See an otolaryngologist and obtain an otological-audiometric evaluation.
