With how loud just one suit of armor moving can be, a battle must have been extremely loud. Is there any evidence of people suffering tinnitus because of it?
No evidence from the medieval period that I've read or heard about, though TBH I've never actually gone looking.
There'd likely be some hearing protection given by padded coifs, arming caps and the like, even though that wasn't their main function.
Deafness once guns and cannon were in regular use does get mentioned more, though early reasoning varied over whether it was caused by noise and blast, or was divine punishment for using such devilish brimstone-stinking weapons.
Anyway, tinnitus was far from the worst thing that could happen to someone in a medieval battle.

The description of ringing in your ears sounds wrong to me. Ringing implies that there was a start, an end, and a repeated sequence. The ringing in my ears never began, never stopped, and is continuous, like holding down a key on an electric piano.

Froggie Gets a Ring Light
I got a ring light to help demonstrate why people probably shouldn't get a ring light and then I accidentally took some bomb ass photos with a ring light.
Soooo... do what you want. I'm not your mom.
