Tinnitus Management

Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, is a symptoms experienced by perhaps as much as 20 million Americans.  Although commonly called "ringing in the ears", the sound quality might not be a ringing sound at all.  Some patients describe the noise as "chirping," "frying," "roaring," "crickets," "electricity," etc.  Sometimes this noise is so loud that it interferes with understanding speech.  Many times the sound is in both ears, whether simultaneously or not.  Frequently, this sound is a symptom of damage to either the inner ear or nerve for hearing.  Sometimes, this noise is so loud, so unremitting, and so distracting that it can interfere with normal activities or sleeping.  Tinnitus management or retraining can help to manage this noise so that one can return to normal function.
