The doctor at the ER said the ringing in my ears is due to termites. Should I get a second opinion?

That's tinnitus. The medical term for ringing in the ears...it could be idiopathic

Did the doctor say "termites" or "tinnitus" did you hear him wrong? it's tinnitus, which is a ringing in the ears sometimes from high blood pressure. Usually if it's bad enough a hearing aid is in order.

Take second opinion, but get it in written. With all that ringing prolly you don't hear properly.

Good luck!

PS- Tinnitus or ringing in ear may be a part of some syndrome and it will be a good idea to have proper check up.

Well, it IS possible that you might have a tremite in your ear (it's not uncommon for bugs to crawl in there), but I'm sure that he must have said "tinnitus". If there were a bug in your ear he would have done something to remove it or sent you to a specialist who could.

Are you sure the doctor didn't tinnitus and not termites? Google tinnitus and call your doctor.
