Why can you hear clearly out of your ears one second and then suddenly have one of them “start ringing” with no change in the audio environment around you??

This is called tinnitus! It’s your brain confusing random signals for noise. It can be caused by lots of things. You can get a random muscle spasm in your ear, or you can move your head too fast and your ear bones get a little confused, your blood pressure can cause a tiny bit of swelling…
Sometimes it can be a sign of damage. If it happens a *lot*, it might be a good idea to get an ear check up. But everyone gets tinnitus sometimes, so if it’s a rare occurence, don’t worry too much about it.
