Tinnitus

False perception of sound

Tinnitus is a condition when a person hears a ringing sound or a different variety of sounds when no corresponding external sound is present and that other people cannot hear. The word tinnitus comes from the Latin tinnire, "to ring". Tinnitus may be associated with hearing loss or decreased comprehension of speech in noisy environments.
