Tinnitus
Tinnitus is often described as a ringing in the ears like after going to a loud concert and is certainly irritating and distracting! In some cases, tinnitus is only temporary and disappears shortly. Yet for others, the ringing noise is constant and interferes with their ability to concentrate or hear actual sound. It can be intermittent or continuous and definitely has an impact on the quality of your daily life.
