Ringing, buzzing or noise in the ear or head may or may not be associated with hearing loss. Such sounds that one experiences in the absence of any other sound stimulus is what is referred to as tinnitus. It is quite challenging to treat tinnitus as the treatment varies from one person to another. Undergoing a tinnitus evaluation will help you to identify the type of tinnitus that you have and also have an idea about its loudness based on which the Audiologist can work on the treatment that is specifically catering to your needs.
