Dealing With Tinnitus

Have you ever found yourself hearing sounds that nobody else can? If you have, then it may be because of tinnitus. With its name derived from the Latin root word which means “ringing”, tinnitus is often associated with patients who hear ringing sounds, whether in their head or in their ears. In actual fact, however, all patients will hear different sounds. Some may hear musical sounds or even the sound of running water! Besides the different sounds that patients may hear, individual tinnitus symptoms also vary from hearing the sound in both ears and hearing the sound in one ear only. Tinnitus can also be caused by many different factors.
