Tinnitus and hearing loss often co-exist. An estimated 50% of tinnitus sufferers experience some degree of hearing loss. Some people with tinnitus may think their trouble hearing is caused by the tinnitus, but in fact it can be due to a hearing loss. The hearing loss is often caused by damaged hair cells in the inner ear.
Hearing aids are helpful for many people who have tinnitus. The more you hear, the less you may notice your tinnitus. With hearing aids, your brain has other sounds to listen to, making your tinnitus less noticeable.
