Tinnitus isn't a disease, it's a problem in which a person hears clicking, buzzing, swishing, or ringing on one or both ears. The condition can be caused by medications, tumors, ear trauma, exposure to loud noises, and Meniere's syndrome. The sounds coming from the ear can be so bothersome that it affects the person's quality of life.
Ringing in the ears (tinnitus) is noise originating in the ear rather than in the environment. It is a symptom and not a specific disease. Tinnitus is very commonâ10 to 15% of people experience it to some degree. The noise heard by people with tinnitus may be a buzzing, ringing, roaring, whistling, or hissing sound and is often associated with hearing loss. Some people hear more complex sounds that may be different at different times.
