Tinnitus and brain ringing have no obvious difference in symptoms, both of which are abnormal sounds heard by ears. Therefore, if you want to distinguish tinnitus from brain ringing, you need to do brain MRI and ear MRI, and you need to rule out whether there are organic lesions in the brain or whether there are organic lesions such as acoustic neuroma and jugular glomus tumor in the ear. In this way, by checking the cause, we can make a clear diagnosis and judge what causes tinnitus and brain ringing. If tinnitus is caused by acoustic neuroma and jugular glomus tumor in the ear, surgery can be performed. If there is tinnitus caused by intracranial space occupation or vascular factors in the brain, symptomatic treatment is needed.
Tinnitus is ear buzzing, brain buzzing is brain buzzing. These two parts are different. Tinnitus and brain ringing have different causes. Many causes of tinnitus may be problems in the middle ear and inner ear, while brain ringing may be caused by intracranial vascular sclerosis and insufficient blood supply. Therefore, tinnitus and brain ringing are actually just patients who feel the sound, but they don't produce sound, just a feeling. At present, it is difficult to distinguish tinnitus from brain sounds in clinic, and it is also difficult to distinguish them. It is the key to find reasonable reasons and carry out targeted treatment.
