Are you one of the 50 million Americans who suffer from ringing in the ears? Or maybe you know someone who does? With one in six Americans affected by tinnitus, the answer to at least one of those questions is probably yes.
Tinnitus is the leading service-related disability among U.S. veterans. The American Tinnitus Association (ATA) says if you’re a senior citizens, military personnel, person who works in a loud environment, or a musician, you’re high-risk for tinnitus. And a 2016 report confirmed that tinnitus is a growing concern for teens and young people, while predicting it will get worse thanks to “risky listening habits” like blaring music through headphones.
