If you are newly experiencing tinnitus, it can be scary. It is annoying at the very least.
There are a couple of types of tinnitus. One is hearing related (or at least that's what they think). Usual this person has some hearing loss and can be diagnosed with a hearing test. This indicates damage to the inner ear.
Then there is one called "somatic" which means realted to the body. Some individuals (such as myself) also have neck, head, or back pain. Then again we don't really know the exact location giving off the sound.
Some say it is a phantom sound the audio nerves are picking up. This sound isn't necessarily in the ear, but in the brain or in the head.
There are so many possible links I won't mention them all here, but my book off to the side of this post outlines many of them. For some the book can be read for free as it is in the Kindle match program.
