Someone else touched on this subject in another thread, but I wanted more information so I started this one.
My ear (left) has been ringing NON STOP for a little over two years, that's probably nothing compared to some people. I made some very poor choices and shot one too many times without hearing protection...now I am going to have to live with this (from what I understand) the rest of my life! This is not a soft ringing...it is a high pitched LOUD ring that I hear NON STOP! I am curious to see how many others suffer from this HORRIBLE ringing like I do, and what, if anything, you do to help control it (if you can). Any information you have will be helpful. And please...make sure you and the others you shoot with ALWAYS wear hearing protection, tinnitus is no joke and it sure as hell isn't something you want to be stuck with like me.
