Tinnitus from MRI?
I am a 53 years old woman. Around 3 days ago (Tuesday), my left ear started ringing for about several minutes than stopped. Then, 2 days ago, my left ear started to ring again. This time, the ringing in my left ear has not stopped. Last week (On Tuesday), I had a MRI done without any ear protection for a different issue (thoracic spine MRI for tingling in my left feet and leg). I was in the MRI for around 20 minutes. The MRI results was normal. However, I was not asked to wear any headphones or earplugs, so there was no hearing protection, and the MRI was open MRI but it was rather loud. I never had tinnitus before. Is it possible to get ringing ears from MRI? What can I do to treat the riniging?
