The tinnitus most traumatic brain injuries sustain is likely due to hearing loss or some sort of damage to the inner ear.

The best way to get this tested is an otoacoustic emissions test to test if your sensory hair cells are PRESENT or ABSENT.

Mild TBI are likely 50/50 chance of recovery. A lot depends on the degree of hearing loss and factors such as age.

If it is your first major head injury, without a skull fracture, your chances of Tinnitus going away are likely GOOD. However it may take up to 12 months.
