Tinnitus can be a cause of distress and can interfere with sleep. It is a sign of injury to the inner ear or hearing nerve.
Next Steps
Better to get a hearing test (pure tone audiometry) to rule out any asymmetrical hearing loss which may need further treatment.
Health Tips
Some tinnitus and hearing loss can be a natural part of aging.
