What Causes Tinnitus?

I suffer from a mild version of tinnitus which is a ringing in the ears that happens on occasion that has nothing to do with actual sounds that are happening. This was quite annoying but over ime it seems to have lessened for which i am thankful.

I never realy thoguht about what caused tinnitus but surfing i found this site that exlpained quite a bit

Two thing i found of interest:

  • William Shatner suffers from Tinnitus
  • It is my tinnitus that makes me sometimes have to turn the radio down even when it is very soft because the condition amplifies this sound and makes it painful!
