Understanding Tinnitus
Tinnitus is the perception of sound — ringing, buzzing, hissing, or clicking — in the absence of an external sound source. It affects approximately 15% of the population and can significantly impact quality of life.
While tinnitus is often associated with hearing loss, it can also occur with normal hearing. Common causes include noise exposure, age-related hearing loss, ear infections, and certain medications.
Although there is currently no cure for tinnitus, effective management strategies can significantly reduce its impact on daily life. Most patients achieve substantial relief with the right combination of therapies.
