Tinnitus is a fairly common medical condition and is the perception of sound when there is no external noise. Tinnitus is reported in all age groups and can be experienced as a ringing, whooshing, humming or buzzing in the ear. These sensations can cause daily suffering, or can be intermittent. Tinnitus is more common with people who have hearing loss or other ear problems but can also be experienced by people who have normal hearing too.

Currently, there is no cure for tinnitus, unfortunately. However, treatment and management therapies can help to reduce the impact of tinnitus so that people can live a normal active and happy life.
