About 1 in 5 people experience the perception of noise or ringing in the ears. It’s called tinnitus.<\/p>\n

Dr. Gayla Poling says tinnitus can be perceived a myriad of ways. “Ninety percent of those with tinnitus have hearing loss.” Hearing loss can be age-related, come from a one-time exposure, or exposure to loud sounds over a lifetime. Dr. Poling says the tiny hairs in our inner ear may play a role.<\/p>\n

“Those little hair cells in our inner ear are really delicate structures. That’s what is actually damaged with noise exposure.”<\/p>\n

Dr. Poling says there’s no scientifically proven cure for tinnitus, but there are treatment and management options.<\/p>\n

“Something as simple as getting a hearing aid to really treat the hearing loss.” Other options include using a sound generator or using a fan at night.<\/p>\n

“There’s something called ‘tinnitus retraining therapy.'” There are more ear-level masking devices where you can hear sounds throughout the day, too, that are more distracting.”<\/p>\n

If ringing in your ears bothers you, start by seeing your health care provider for a hearing test.<\/p>\n
