Will a Lipoma on my Scalp Near my Ear Be the Cause of my Tinnitus?

April 25, 2013
Asked By:curious93

i have had the lipoma since birth, I am a 38 yr old female, and developed tinnitis at age 30. I don't use any OTC drugs or illicit ones either. :) just curious, ive learned to live with my tinnitus and well, the lipoma is no big deal, even though I swear i think it's "traveling" further down, but it could be cuz its getting larger in size...?
