There was a reduction in the level of tinnitus discomfort, as measured by THI, after treatment of SSNHL. There is a correlation between tinnitus and hearing improvement in patients with SSNHL only in the emotional domain of THI, but this correlation is considered poor. The degree of tinnitus severity as measured by THI was not proportional to the hearing loss and is not a prognostic factor for hearing improvement.
