Brief Answer:

Tinnitus

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

The noise in the ear is tinnitus. Please tell me do you have any hearing difficulty? Any history of head injury or headache?

You should get a pure tone audiometry done and send me the report so that I can suggest you better.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care
