Is your helmet responsible your hearing loss?

I generally use ear plugs on anything longer than a quick run around the block. local stuff I won't.

But I do have some hearing loss in my right ear, and I have been diagnosed with tinnitus. I believe that it has more to do with my profession than it does bikes. i used to run around shooting stuff, rifles, cannons, and stuff without earplus because I thought it was cool. Now I am seeing the error of my ways.
