Tinnitus is a problem produced by a variety of noises within the ear that affect the life of the person. Although many solutions have been propagated over the years, none have been proven to be completely effective. This is a problem that affects between 40 to 50 million people, or 15 percent of the population, in the United States alone. Nearly 2 million of these people have such a severe problem with tinnitus that they can no longer function normally. The good news is that there appears to be a tinnitus cure.
