People with tinnitus hear noises in their ears. Each person with tinnitus experiences it differently. Tinnitus is from the Latin word for ringing, and to some people the noise does indeed sound like ringing. Others describe their ear noise as roaring, rushing, hissing, chirping, beeping, buzzing, whistling, or clicking. The sound might be high-pitched, low-pitched, or multi-toned, or it might sound like static.
