Tinnitus – Ringing in the Ears

 
What is Tinnitus?

Tinnitus is a medical condition characterized by persistent ringing in one or both ears which can only be heard by the affected individual. It has also been described as whistling, hissing, buzzing, or pulsing in the ear. These sounds may come and go; however, most sufferers experience symptoms 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The effects range from slight annoyance to severe disruption of everyday life. The American Tinnitus Association estimates that over 50 million Americans suffer from Tinnitus.
 
Tinnitus Treatment

Due to the personal and unique nature of each Tinnitus condition, proper evaluation and specialized treatment is necessary. Although there isn’t a single cure for Tinnitus, Hearing Solution Center audiologists are experienced at providing individual solutions on a case-by-case basis. After completing an audiological evaluation, your professional may refer you to an otolaryngologist for further examination.

In many cases, the distressing combination of Tinnitus and hearing loss can be relieved with AGX hearing aids. While worn, a hearing system can restore ambient sounds and help fill Sound Voids™ to eliminate the effects of Tinnitus.

Tinnitus can effectively be evaluated first by our Audiologists at Hearing Solution Centers. Please call for an appointment to have your Tinnitus professionally evaluated.
