Very loud noises, especially chronically, can damage hearing, and especially degrade the high-frequency sensorineural receptors. A solitary high-decibel explosion, such as a gunshot or fireworks can also damage hearing. Tinnitus at your age is a sign of hearing change, but it may be transitory. See an otolaryngologist, and get an audiogram to objectify the problem. Always use ear protection.
