The diagnosis was tinnitus, but there is no ringing sensation in my ears.
Tinnitus is commonly characterized as a sensation of hearing a ringing sound in your ears. However, it's important to note that tinnitus is actually the perception of a noise, typically when there is no external source of sound. While many people experience tinnitus as a ringing sound, it can also present as a pulsing, whooshing, clicking, or crackling sound. If you notice any of these symptoms persisting for more than a few days, it could be indicative of tinnitus.
