^totally agree



Tinnitus is cause by damage to the hair cells in the inner ear. Even listening to noise at a long period of time at a low volumes can have the same effect as loud volumes of noise at a short duration of time.

Give you ears a rest, wear earplugs when you practice, even when you practice alone without the band. There are different kind of earplugs out there, the moldable Silicon earplugs are pretty good, imo. The sponge earplugs that is inserted in the ear canal can overtime cause another problem of wax buildup by pushing the wax in further. - well that's the advice my doctor gave me. I hoped I helped some
