Symptoms of nervous tinnitus

The nature of tinnitus is ever-changing, often accompanied by hearing loss. The severity and incidence of tinnitus are significantly related to hearing loss. The more severe the sensorineural hearing loss, the more likely it is to produce tinnitus. The loudness of tinnitus increased with the increase of hearing loss. However, tinnitus can also occur in people with normal hearing. About 1 / 3 of moderate and severe hearing loss patients do not have tinnitus, which is still unexplained.

Tinnitus often presents as white noise. When tinnitus and cerebrovascular disease occur at the same time, if there is no hearing impairment, it is mostly central nervous tinnitus. In addition, when the tinnitus is in the head, it may be central, but it may also be bilateral cochlear tinnitus that cannot be described.
