What Is Meniere's Disease?
4. Tinnitus
Tinnitus is a sensation where the patient has the sensation of a ringing sound in their ear. It is sometimes compared to the sound somebody experiences after taking a blow to the head or after having heard a very loud noise. In addition to a ringing sensation, the patient may also experience hissing, buzzing, roaring, or whistling.
The severity of tinnitus can vary significantly. For some, it will be very mild and the patient will barely even notice it. For others, the sensation can be much louder and it can be overbearing. Severe tinnitus can have a severe impact on the patient’s quality of life in the more severe cases.
