10. Tinnitus
BPPV is more common in older people and is often associated with tinnitus. This condition is characterized by the presence of a near-constant sound, such as a ringing or buzzing noise. Some people successfully learn to live with and ignore these sounds, but for others the noise is distressing.
Tinnitus can be treated with the use of a white noise machine. This is like a hearing aid, except it produces a constant low-level sound to drown out the ringing, making it easier to cope with.
