What is hyperacusis?
If you have hyperacusis you will have an increased sensitivity to sounds. This means that you may feel pain or discomfort when you hear sounds that most people are able to tolerate. People with hyperacusis are not all affected by the same type of sounds.
You can get hyperacusis on its own or with a range of other conditions such as depression, migraine, Menière's disease, chronic fatigue syndrome and visual over-sensitivity.
If you have hyperacusis you may also have tinnitus. This is the word for noises that some people hear in the ears or in the head - buzzing, ringing, whistling, hissing and other sounds.
You may also find that the area around your ear is painful or aches.
