You may need a proper examination and complete audiological evaluation. It's unusual to have tinnitus in your age unless there is some loud noise exposure. There are medications which can be used to reduce the tinnitus.. Till you visit an ENT specialist, u can use distraction techniques like music while sleeping if you are having a hard time to sleep
