What Is Tinnitus?

Tinnitus is defined as a perception of sound of varying intensity, loudness and pitch in the absence of external sound. This phantom noise is often referred to as ‘ringing in the ears’ or ‘head noise’.

  • It can be present in either the left or right ear or both ears and can sound like:
    • ringing
    • buzzing
    • roaring
    • hissing
    • clicking
    • music
    • humming
    • crickets & more
  • It can begin at any stage of life and is more common than you would expect and can worsen with age.
  • Tinnitus can be accompanied by feeling of pressure or pain in or around ears.
  • The intensity of the tinnitus may range from being a quiet background noise, heard in low-noise environments, to being so loud that it is audible over loud external sounds. People who have very sensitive hearing can have a form of tinnitus that makes normal sound levels appear uncomfortably harsh and loud.
