It is first important to note that tinnitus is not a disease process in and of itself. Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the ears or head. The sounds have been described as ringing, buzzing, hissing, tones, music, etc. Tinnitus is a common side effect of medications. It can also be a symptom of some other disease process. For this reason, it is important to see a specialist, specifically an Ear, Nose, and Throat physician, if you are experiencing tinnitus. They will help you to determine if the tinnitus is being caused by one of your medications, and more importantly they will order special tests that confirm or rule out disease processes for which tinnitus is a symptom. So is there a cure for tinnitus? The answer is that it depends on the underlying cause. Take the necessary steps to determine what is causing the tinnitus, and you'll be that much closer to finding a cure.

The proper term for ringing buzzing or roaring in the ears is Tinnitus. The proper medical way to pronounce it is TIN-nit-us, not tin-I-tus (the second pronunciation would denote an inflammation, which tinnitus is not). There are many causes of tinnitus, but in general it is caused by a disruption in the auditory pathway to the brain. The brain tries to interpret the random misfiring that this disruption causes, but it cannot. The hearing center of the brain (temporal lobe) sends the signal to the thinking part of your brain (frontal cortex) to help it out. When it reaches the frontal cortex is when you first perceive it. Hench, you then hear Tinnitus.
