Does anyone know if excessive use of cannabis causes tinnitus? I'm sure I saw that somewhere... If someone has tinnitus does that mean that even exposure to relatively low volume levels can cause further damage? This is the most horrible thread we've ever had on IDM I think that we can't afford to run away from this one. One thing I read somewhere was that a lot of people who have tinnitus aren't actually bothered by it- IE they don't actually notice it although it is there. This scares me, it suggests you can f*ck your ears without even realising it. I often wonder if our favourite artists use earplugs on the stage or in the studio? They bally well ought to! Rich.
