I got mine at a super loud music concert a few decades ago, and I worsened it at another concert which wasn't supposed to be as loud as it was. Despite wearing the in-ear hearing protections, it became louder and never went to previous state. So now I am very carefully selecting what I allow others to put in my ears, avoiding big concerts in closed venues altogether.

The high pitch is around 7000-8000 Hz with no single frequency that I can isolate. That means the cilia closest to the entrance got damaged.

So, f*ck you all the "audio engineers" who work around the bad acoustics of a venue merely by increasing volume. I hope you'll get the same suffering as you cause to others.
