| Tinnitus is the medical term for "ringing in the ears" although some people hear other sounds. The noise may be low, medium or high-pitched; there may be a single noise or two or more components to the sound; the noise may be continuous or it may come and go. Besides loud noises, other causes include severe head trauma, sinus and respiratory infections, ear infections, wax build-up, high blood cholesterol, TMJ problems, food allergies, certain types of tumors and a long list of other conditions. Many patients recover spontaneously - with or without treatment - during the first 6 months of suffering. Pulsatile Tinnitus Sometimes a tinnitus noise beats in time with your pulse. Approximately 3% of tinnitus patients experience this kind of tinnitus; people with pulsatile tinnitus typically hear a rhythmic pulsing, often in time with a heartbeat. |
