Okay, so how does tinnitus actually feels like? I'm asking mainly because recently, I've been experiencing something weird going on in my left ear as well.

It all started in the arcade, a few weeks ago, I was half way through a match and suddenly I hear weird crackling noises from my left side. I thought it was something external so I looked around to the left. I saw nothing and disregarded the sound. A few seconds later I heard it again, this time the cracking was accompanied by a subtle buzzing sound. And it felt like it completely blocked my left ear from listening to anything at all!

Nowadays I still get the odd cracking buzzes from time to time, but the main problem is I noticed that my left ear don't listen that well anymore. Everything just sounds as if they were on a lower volume at my left ear. And today... it actually started hurting abit; I was afraid that it might get more serious.
