      Same here. Lifelong tinnitus in one ear without measurable hearing loss. Presumably due to a severe ear infection.

        Also the same, but both ears. I think I’ve had it since I was about 10 after an ear infection and only relatively recently learned not everyone has stupidly high pitched ringing in their ears all the time.
