Do you experience ringing in the ears?  Whether you describe it as ringing, buzzing, whining, clicking or chirping, any internal sound that we hear is called tinnitus.  Tinnitus is a very common complaint, and most of the time is a symptom of something wrong in the hearing system.  In fact, the root cause of most people’s tinnitus is due to damage to the delicate structures we call hair cells deep in the inner ear.  When they are damaged or worn down, they can send signals to the brain when they shouldn’t be, and the brain interprets these signals as sound.  The single largest cause of tinnitus is loud noise exposure.  Our ears were not intended to put up with all the noise in our society.  Plus, many people are exposed to loud noise from occupations and recreation.  The Doctors of Audiology at County Hearing and Balance have the experience and advanced training to identify damage to your ears that might be causing your tinnitus.  They can conduct a Tinnitus Evaluation to answer all of your questions about tinnitus and hearing loss and help put you in the right direction for relief.  County Hearing and Balance has six locations in eastern and central Connecticut.  Their Madison office is located at 82 Bradley Rd.  and their phone number is 203-245-1950 and they accept all major insurances.
