10 Symptoms of Concussion

Symptom #8: Tinnitus
Ringing in the ears, also known as tinnitus, is another indicator that you’re suffering from a concussion following a head injury. This ringing often occurs alongside other symptoms such as nausea, headaches, and dizziness.
Tinnitus can occur because of the way an intense blow to your head jostles your ears and the tiny bones within them. These bones need to be set in a certain formation to function properly, and when they are offset or there are other things out of alignment in the area, you may hear ringing as a result.
