What is tinnitus?

Tinnitus patients' ears often suddenly appear like cicadas, wind, running water or electric current, and even some patients will have echoes and heartbeats, which belong to the category of tinnitus. In addition, there will be some symptoms, such as dizziness, headache, hearing loss and so on. Patients with hearing loss must come to the hospital as soon as possible. Some patients with tinnitus will disappear in the first few minutes; If it lasts more than five minutes, or even a whole day, you need to go to the hospital, because it may be related to some diseases. For example, some patients will have persistent tinnitus, which may be a prelude to sudden deafness; Some patients do not necessarily feel hearing loss when they have tinnitus, but tinnitus is the first complaint. This condition needs to be differentiated from other diseases. The most common tinnitus disease, like Meniere's disease, many patients take tinnitus as the first symptom. After tinnitus appears, dizziness may appear. Some patients have tinnitus after dizziness, and some patients still have tinnitus. There are also some patients with primary tinnitus who have no specific diseases or specific reasons, and may or may not be related to the auditory system. 50% of patients may be related to sleep, mood and mental state. If tinnitus affects their daily life, work and rest, they should be adjusted and intervened.
