Ringing in ears
I had an abdominal/pelvic CT scan with or without contrast done a couple of days ago and I have a ringing in my ears. I know that this is listed as a Barium side effect. Is there something that I can take to help alleviate and is this only temporary?

I think you are suffering from tinnitus so it's better to visit an ENT surgeon.
