When you are deaf multiple parts of the ear can be injured. The ear receives sound as vibration that it converts into sound that is understood by the brain. The parts of the ear that can be injured to result in deafness are the following: the eardrum, the cochlea, the auditory nerve and the middle ear ossicles. Damage to any one of these will result in deafness.
When ear hair cells are damaged, they can send abnormal signals to the brain, which may be perceived as a ringing or buzzing sound known as tinnitus.
