What does ringing in the ears mean?

Tinnitus signs

Ringing in the ears, medically known as tinnitus, is when you experience noise or ringing in one or both of your ears. The noise you hear isn’t caused by an external sound, and other people usually can’t hear it It can manifest as various sounds such as ringing, buzzing, hissing, humming, or whistling, and can range from soft to loud


Tinnitus is often a symptom rather than a condition itself. It can result from several causes, including:

  • Ear damage or exposure to loud noises
  • Earwax buildup
  • Medications
  • Health conditions like diabetes or head injuries
  • Ear disorders

Treatment for tinnitus depends on the underlying cause. Addressing the health problem causing the tinnitus is often the first step. If the ringing persists, the goal is to manage it and reduce its impact on your quality of life If you’re experiencing persistent ringing in your ears, it’s advisable to consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
