High-pitched tinnitus / ringing sounds in the ear
Your doctor may ask these questions to diagnose hearing loss
Do you have hearing problems?
Do you have tinnitus (ringing in the ears)?
Do you have a ringing sound like high pitched metallic tone or shriek/whistling in your ear?
Treatment for hearing loss depends on the cause. For some, it can be corrected by treating the underlying cause, while others may require hearing aids or surgery.
