The internet is a formidable information tool. We have used in this paper the data obtained online from 12,350 tinnitus and hyperacusis patients who responded to the 16 questions asked as a prelude to a formal medical consultation. The data thus obtained allow us to have a statistical notion of many aspects of these symptoms and their impact on the lives of a significant group of Spanish speaking patients.
