Hyperacusis is a debilitating hearing disorder where there is an increased sensitivity to certain frequencies and volume ranges of sound. Everyday sounds can be unbearable to the sufferer but will have no effect on others. Hyperacusis is often accompanied by Tinnitus.[citation needed] Hearing loss is a significant risk factor with both conditions.[citation needed]
Prevalence[edit | edit source]
Hyperacusis and Tinnitus have a prevalence of about 10–15%.[2]
