Brief Answer:
Seems to be due to sensorineural hearing loss.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. It is quite apparent that you have tinnitus. Usually it occurs due to sensorineural hearing loss which could involve age related degenerative changes of the vestibulocochlear apparatus, the organ of hearing that is located in the inner ear. A audiometry will help in confirming the same. Such a condition is often hard to treat and medicines are frequently ineffective. However, if the results indicate, there are hearing aids with masking sounds that could help you override your problem.
Visit an ENT doctor and get an audiometry done. You can share the reports with me thereafter.
Regards
