WHAT IS TINNITUS?

Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the absence of external auditory stimuli. It may be experienced as ringing, buzzing, humming, hissing, or even a pulsating sensation in the ears. Although tinnitus is not a standalone ailment, it commonly serves as a symptom of an underlying condition, including age-related hearing loss, exposure to loud noises, ear infections, or specific medications. It can occur in one or both ears and may be persistent or sporadic.

👂 SYMPTOMS:
Persistent ringing or buzzing sounds represent the most prevalent symptom of tinnitus, varying in intensity from mild to severe

😴 Sleep Disruption: Tinnitus has the potential to interfere with sleep, making it challenging to initiate or maintain a restful sleep. This disruption can result in fatigue, irritability, and difficulties concentrating throughout the day.

🥹Emotional Strain: The constant intrusion of sounds in tinnitus may induce anxiety, depression, and stress, affecting individuals emotionally.

😣Challenges in Concentration and Communication: Tinnitus's presence can hinder the ability to concentrate on tasks or participate in conversations, resulting in frustration and reduced productivity.

At Southwest Wellness Audiology we have made it our mission to listen to our clients needs and provide them with the highest level of care. We understand that losing your hearing is isolating and can make socialising very difficult and therefore cause you to pull away from social events or communicating with people. Sometimes hearing loss is obvious, other times it sneaks up on us, with slow loss each year.

Hearing loss can be from impacted ear wax, ear infections or things that can be easily fixed. It may be that our ear has been injured or as we have aged we have lost our hearing. In this case a hearing aid can change your world and help you hear again.

Hearing loss can significantly impact your daily life and relationships. Recognising the symptoms and undergoing a diagnostic hearing test are essential steps to address hearing loss effectively.
Early detection allows for timely intervention and personalized treatment, improving communication abilities and overall well-being. If you suspect you have hearing loss, consult with our audiologist for a thorough evaluation and guidance on the best course of action.
