What is the medical term meaning ringing in the ear?

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.
