- Tinnitus produces a ringing sound in the ear, although no external sound is actually present. It is a symptom that manifests from various underlying conditions of the ear. One condition that leads to tinnitus is earwax impaction. Many individuals use cotton swabs to clean the auditory canal daily. Instead of removing the earwax, cotton swabs tend to push the earwax farther into the auditory canal, causing the earwax to accumulate in the ear. This may result in tinnitus and decreased ability to hear.
