Not all ringing or buzzing sounds are ear ache though, they could be symptoms of tinitus. The problem is that ear ache and Tinnitus can be symptoms of the other so it can be difficult to know which you have. Is it tinnitus that’s causing the ringing or an ear ache? Is tinnitus causing the ear ache?
