10 Symptoms Of Earwax Build-Up
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #3: Tinnitus
Often described as a loud ringing in the ear, tinnitus can cause a lot of discomforts and disrupt focus. You may also experience it in the form of a buzzing, clicking, or hissing sound. The pitch and loudness can vary from person to person. It can also be a persistent noise or occur rarely.
While it is a very common symptom, affecting as many as 15–20% of people, it is easily treatable and you should experience improvement once the earwax buildup has been removed. This irritation to the eardrum is often coupled with hearing loss. It can however also be a symptom to something more or less serious, hence the importance of seeing a doctor for correct diagnosis.
