What Causes The Sudden Spontaneous Ringing In Ear?

My left year started ringing about 2 weeks ago and then about 1 and a half week ago my hearing went dull sounding so now higher tones like kids voices and pianos sound distorted and i have tinnitus. Just wondering if it will get better or not my ent said it could of been a viral infection so he put me on prednisone. I m on day 3 and noticed maybe a slight change but not much.
