I have tinnitus and sorry there is no cure. I have had it for years and was told it may go away. They lied. However, to help me sleep on the night I listen to talking books and that deadens the ringing and when the tape comes to an end I am usually asleep and the machine switches off. Mind you in the morning I have to replay the tape to hear the bits I missed. If you are younger than I am you may wish to substitute talking books with your type of music I am sure it will work just as well. All the best. Ring Ring.......
Hello henry. You can try resting it as much as posible.. and everyday or when its acting up try icing it for 20 mins then heat for 20 mins... You can go back and forth a few times if you like.. But that is how my dad treats his and his wife is a Physio. Oh and it also helps to get it rubbed by someone who knows how. Good luck!!
ps. If your a video game junky or a computer junky.. I must tell you .. that will make it much much worse.
Some forms of tinnitus are caused low blood flow in the ears and many people say that taking Ginko Biloba helps a lot as it increases blood flow, it is also said to help your memory for the same reason, however this is very open to discussion and it is a case of try it and see. The following report is typical -
Patients reporting a positive effect on tinnitus in the open study were included in the double-blind placebo-controlled study (20 out of 21 patients participated). 7 patients preferred GBE to placebo, 7 placebo to GBE and 6 patients had no preference. (!)Statistical group analysis gives no support to the hypothesis that GBE has any effect on tinnitus, although it is possible that GBE has an effect on some patients due to several reasons, e.g. the diverse etiology of tinnitus. Since there is no objective method to measure the symptom, the search for an effective drug can only be made on an individual basis.
