Tinnitus (Ringing in Ears) Causes and Treatments

Tinnitus affects both men and women and its occurrence increases with age. Thus this disorder is more common in elderly people. Sometimes it also affects children and teenagers.
Generally tinnitus worsens when the noise in the background is low. Especially, at night when the surroundings are quiet, people suffering from tinnitus become more aware of the persistent noise and it disturbs their ability to sleep.
