Knee injury and ringing in ears

I suffered a knee injury a few years ago. Saw orthopedist for pain and was told it may be extra connective tissue constricting blood flow after x rays. Recently (about a month ago) took up bicycle riding for transportation. Now have occasional dull pain in the knee and a ringing in my ears that changes tone when I keep the knee bent for extended periods. This does not happen with other limbs. What could this be and should I be worried? Thank you for any insight! 25, male if that helps!

Not buying the constricted blood flow concept because you didnt say the foot was involved and thats downstream from the knee so to speak. I too cannot figure out how the ear and the knee symptoms are related but neither sounds ominous. Keep riding.
He certainly should be worried due to your presentation, however it is hard to identify the relationship between the tinnitus and the knee injury with the only logical connection being cardiovascular but even that's a stretch. The tinnitus the ear may be a result of cervical and/or head positioning while biking. As far as the knee, doctors of chiropractic have a lot more resources and avenues for addressing knee problems: adjusting the knee proper, aligning the foot underneath the knee, correcting vertebral subluxations of the lumbar spine were nerves exit to supply the knee, nutrition, and there is even some peer-reviewed medical research that indicates emotional and toxicity as to other potential causes although very minute.

That is very interesting. Knee pain and tinnitus (ear ringing) are both very common, but I've never heard of one being associated with the other. So, serious? No, I doubt it. But, it is very interesting nonetheless!

Keep up the bike riding. It is great exercise and will benefit your knees over the long term.

Best of luck!
