Tinnitus Assessment
Do you (or a loved one) experiencing a ringing in ears that no one else can hear?
If so, you are not alone.
Even while it’s alarming the first time you notice Tinnitus, it’s not usually a
sign of something more serious. If your symptoms persist for more than a week or
are interfering with your ability to concentrate, sleep, or relax, make an
appointment with your doctor or a Hearing Buddy expert in your area.
Hearing Buddy provides a Comprehensive Tinnitus Assessment and specialised
services in Tinnitus Management in addition to a Comprehensive Hearing
Assessment.
We do a thorough examination of your medical history and administer a battery of
tests to determine the root of the problem. This will assist you in determining
the reasons of your tinnitus and will also provide you with strategies for
managing your tinnitus. If hearing loss is present, we can offer you a variety
of hearing aids that can assist in managing your tinnitus, address your hearing
loss, and fit your lifestyle. Even if your hearing is normal, we can discuss
ways to manage your tinnitus or refer you to other professionals, depending on
your circumstances.
There is no cure for tinnitus, but fortunately, it can be managed. There are
specific hearing aid programmes designed to drown out the sound of tinnitus.
Hearing aids with this tinnitus feature augment the volume of external noise to
the point that it masks the sound of tinnitus. This makes it more difficult to
consciously perceive tinnitus and helps the brain focus on outside, ambient
noises. The masking impact of hearing aids is particularly strong for patients
who have hearing loss in the same frequency range as their tinnitus.
