What is Tinnitus?

Often described as a “ringing in the ear,” tinnitus can also present as a low level hum, buzz, clicking sound, or roaring sound.

There are many causes of tinnitus, including age-related hearing loss, impacted earwax, an ear infection, inner ear damage from exposure to loud noises, and certain diseases.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions about Tinnitus

What causes ringing in the ear?

The condition known as tinnitus causes a ringing sensation in the ear which is not caused by an external sound but by damaged parts of the inner ear. Some people experience temporary tinnitus after exposure to extreme noises, such as a loud concert, but many people suffer from chronic tinnitus, which is an always-present perception of ringing, buzzing, humming, chirping, or clicking.

Will ringing in the ears ever go away?

Many people with ringing in the ears wonder if tinnitus can be cured permanently. The treatment for tinnitus depends on your unique situation and the underlying causes of the condition. In some instances, tinnitus can be improved by solving the underlying condition, such as impacted earwax or the use of a certain medication. In cases where tinnitus cannot be cured, there are solutions to help suppress and mask the noise or make it less distracting.

Does tinnitus need to be treated?

If you or a loved one is experiencing symptoms of tinnitus, it is important to see a tinnitus expert or audiologist. A professional can help determine the underlying cause of your tinnitus and recommend relief and treatment options. In some cases, symptoms can be reversed or slowed if they are caught early enough.

Is tinnitus treatment covered by insurance?

Many health plans cover hearing tinnitus treatment. Gulf Gate Hearing Aid Center is in a network with a number of insurance providers, including Aetna, United Healthcare, and Humana. If you have questions about whether your insurance will cover tinnitus treatment, contact us today.
