Tinnitus
Are you suffering from Tinnitus? Have you ever experienced ringing, buzzing or hissing in your ears? If so, you are not alone
Tinnitus is a condition which is related to hearing loss, but it can have many causes. This includes exposure to loud noise, aging, ear infections, and injury. Tinnitus is a common hearing complaint which affects 15-20% of the population. People with tinnitus experience ringing or other noises in one or both of their ears.
Ringing in the ears is a symptom of tinnitus, and it is a result of your brain trying to compensate for the loss of hair cells in your ear. Tinnitus can also be experienced as a hissing, roaring, or buzzing sound.
