The IFP - Halton Hills | Thursday, May 26,2022 | 10 By Cory Soal RHA.D. COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUTTINNITUS - PART 2 DO WE KNOW WHATTINNITUS IS? The actual cause or event or mechanism of Tinnitus is not known. We know itis real; it is a symptom that something is wrong in the auditory system, but we do not know what that something is. We do know that it is not the patients imagination; itis a physiological or neurological event. There is reason to be hopeful because current research using a Tinnitus model may provide the necessary information for identifying it's cause. IS IT ASSOCIATED WITH HEARING LOSS? In most cases, Tinnitus is associated with some hearing loss. For example, those who have been exposed to excessively loud sounds may have a hearing loss for the high pitched tones. Usually their Tinnitus will be located as a high pitched tone in the region of the hearing loss. In some cases Tinnitus is present where there is no hearing loss and for no discernable reason.
