Why do people hear ringing after leaving a loud rock concert?

FAQ
After leaving loud rock concerts, many concert-goers often complain of ringing in their ears. The ringing sound is a result of the destruction of the cilia by the high-volume sounds. Resonating objects often end up damaged or destroyed. Cilia resonate when a sound reaches the hair’s natural frequency. If the sound is extremely loud and goes on for some period of time, it can cause destructive resonance to the cilia and kill it – the ringing sensation is actually the cilia dying.

How do we hear?

Hearing is a series of events in which the ear converts sound waves into electrical signals and causes nerve impulses to be sent to the brain where they are interpreted as sound. The ear has three main parts: the outer, middle, and inner ear. Sound waves enter through the outer ear and reach the middle ear, where they cause the ear drum to vibrate. The vibrations are transmitted through three tiny bones in the middle ear called the ossicles.
