Disease/Condition Glossary
Tinnitus: It is a condition in which ringing or buzzing noise in one or both ears may be constant or come and go, often associated with hearing loss. Common causes are exposure to loud sounds, whiplash, head injuries, too much ear wax or medication side effects. Symptoms include ringing, buzzing, roaring, clicking, hissing, and humming.
Smooth muscle spasms: Smooth muscle can also go into spasm, which means involuntary contraction of a muscle. When a hollow structure filled with air or fluid is squeezed by the muscle spasm, significant pain may occur since the fluid or air cannot be compressed. For example, smooth muscle in the intestinal wall can go into spasm, causing waves of pain called colic. Causes of spasms include when a muscle is overused, tired, previously injured, or strained. Symptoms are colicky pain and muscle weakness.
Cerebral circulatory disorders: Cerebral circulation is the blood flow in your brain. It’s important for healthy brain function. Circulating blood supplies your brain with the oxygen and nutrients it needs to function properly. When your cerebral circulation is impaired, less oxygen and glucose reach your brain. This can cause brain damage and neurological problems. Some conditions related to impaired cerebral circulation include stroke (blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced), cerebral hemorrhage (uncontrolled bleeding in the brain), cerebral hypoxia (reduced supply of oxygen), and cerebral oedema (accumulation of fluid).
