Hello. Tinnitus is an unwanted noise that originates in the auditory system itself or nearby organs and is usually inaudible by others. Although annoying, tinnitus is not usually a sign of something serious. Although it can get worse with age, for many people tinnitus improves with treatment. Tinnitus can be short-lived if the cause is found and resolved. Many people have tinnitus that persists for months and years with a serious life-threatening condition called persistent tinnitus.
Tinnitus can be completely cured if the cause of tinnitus is found, in some cases the cause cannot be found.
Therefore, you should see an Ear - Nose - Throat doctor for advice and appropriate treatment.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards.
