summary

With the development of industrial cities and the increase of the pace of life and work pressure, the number of tinnitus patients has increased dramatically. In recent years, the number of tinnitus patients has increased several times than in the past few years. What is the cause of tinnitus? Let me talk about it.

What's the cause of the tinnitus

First, the cause of noise: people have such a common experience that if they suddenly hear the sound of firecrackers, there will be a long echo in their ears, which will disappear after half a day. This is that the external noise has temporarily damaged the auditory nerve. Those workers who work in noisy environment for a long time are the victims of noise. The long-term noise stimulation mostly causes inner ear nerve damage. The tinnitus caused by noise is mainly manifested as the disorder of spontaneous activity of auditory nerve fibers.

Second: the causes of external and middle ear diseases: external ear foreign bodies (cerumen) can cause tinnitus when they touch the tympanic membrane; vascular malformations and lesions of the middle ear may also cause tinnitus. Through the examination and treatment of otology clinicians, most of these tinnitus can be cured.

Third: age: the incidence rate of tinnitus is over 30% for people over 60 years old. The main reason is the degeneration of auditory nervous system with the increase of age.
