Whilst to someone who suffers from tinnitus, the sounds they are hearing appear to be coming from an external source, they are actually created within the ear itself. The condition does not always restrict itself to one ear.
If you are suffering from this problem then you probably are experiencing a ringing, buzzing or humming sound in one or both of your ears. If you've ever taken a seashell and put it close to your ear, that's what it sounds like.
