Managing Tinnitus
Tinnitus is a medical condition that causes people to hear a consistent noise in their ears even though the noise has no external source. It is usually a temporary problem, but up to 15% of the adult population has reporting experiencing chronic tinnitus. Many people perceive it as “ringing in the ears,” although other sufferers reports hearing a roaring, buzzing, clicking, or chirping sound instead. Tinnitus can have different underlying causes, from head injuries to earwax buildup to small tumors. However, many people suffering from tinnitus are unable to determine the underlying cause.
Looking for a Cause
If you are being bothered by a persistent ringing in the ears, your family doctor or a specialist can help you narrow down potential causes. Some potential issues that they may want to look at include:
Medications – Ringing in the ears is a known side effect of many different kinds of medications, including antibiotics, chemotherapy, and large doses of aspirin. If it is medically feasible, your doctor may want to adjust your dosages or switch your medications to see if that helps the problem at all.
Heart conditions – High blood pressure can exacerbate tinnitus, while a condition called atherosclerosis (which is caused by cholesterol buildup) can cause the blood vessels near your ears to lose their elasticity. This can result in chronic ear ringing symptoms. Sometimes changes in diet and exercise to lower blood pressure can also help with hearing conditions.
Earwax – Sometimes the solution is as simple as a thorough ear cleaning. When earwax builds up in the ears for too long, it can become impacted, a condition known as cerumen impaction. This can cause hearing loss as well as ringing in the ears.
Unfortunately, if your doctor cannot determine an underlying cause, then your condition may become a chronic problem. The good news is that many different methods of managing this frustrating syndrome are available today.
Symptom Management
People with this condition often need to experiment with several different solutions before finding one that works for them. Some people have found success with alternative medicine, including acupuncture, aromatherapy, and hypnosis. Others have found that simply maintaining a healthy lifestyle – no alcohol, caffeine, or tobacco

– greatly reduces or eliminates their symptoms.
Another option to explore is a device called a masker. This is a small product worn in the ear, similar to a hearing aid. Rather than treating tinnitus, it simply masks the sound by creating white noise or other soft sounds at the same frequency. Some people prefer this external noise to the ringing, buzzing, or other irritations they are used to.
If you are suffering from this condition, the important thing is to remain patient. For one thing, stress exacerbates tinnitus. For another, the solution you need is probably out there. You just need to look.
