What Is That Ringing in My Ears?
Posted on June 11, 2013
Most people have occasional ringing or buzzing in their ears that comes and goes. Many people have constant noises in their ears, which we call tinnitus. Some tinnitus is so severe that it can impact a person’s quality of life.
Tinnitus may be linked to many heath issues. Hearing loss, exposure to loud noise, ear wax, high blood pressure, stress, depression and head or neck injuries are just a few examples of health issues that may contribute to tinnitus. This condition can also be caused by a number of medications or interactions between medications. Some people are not at all bothered by their tinnitus. Certain people experience trouble sleeping or concentrating. They can also become irritable or depressed.If you suffer from tinnitus, get your hearing evaluated. The results will help guide your doctor to make appropriate recommendations. If you don’t have hearing loss, you can wear tinnitus maskers that emit a sound that helps to suppress the tinnitus. To learn more about hearing loss, contact your doctor or call Hearing Care Solutions at 866.344.7756.
