Tinnitus is one of the diseases that can occur as a result of Channelopathy effecting potassium channels. Tinnitus involves hearing sounds where no sounds are present. In physiology of hearing, depolarization occurs from inward movement of potassium and calcium ions. In Tinnitus, potassium channels stay open a lot longer causing depolarization and excessive sound presence even though it is not present. Symptom of Tinnitus include hearing sounds such as ringing, whistling, buzzing, and clicking. Tinnitus is caused by loss of hair cell in cochlea and when these hair cells are damaged, they trigger random electrical impulses to the brain. These impulses cause hearing sounds such as ringing, buzzing and clicking. Tinnitus is a fairly common disease and most of the time it points to a deeper problem such as hearing
