Remedies For Tinnitus - Tips on How to Stop the Condition
By Hiranya Singh
Tinnitus is more commonly known as the condition in which there is a ‘ringing sound’ in the ear(s). Along with a ringing sound, people suffering from this condition also report hearing other sounds like high pitched squeals, ringing bells, crickets chirping, the sound of gushing water and that of wind. Many people suffer from this condition and are always looking for remedies of tinnitus. However, although tinnitus seems to be a condition affecting several people, no definite cause has been identified. Instead, there are several probable causes for the onset of tinnitus. Regardless of the cause, tinnitus is a complicated condition to handle and can often be the cause of a lot of frustration for the sufferer. Some common remedies for tinnitus are,
- Avoiding loud noises: Loud noises are very often implicated in the onset of tinnitus. A straightforward remedy for tinnitus is to avoid being near loud noises to avoid ear damage. Rock concerts, power tools, movie theatres, nightclubs etc are all high risk places for ear damage. Another remedy for tinnitus is to avoid using in-ear headphones as they transmit sound directly into the ear and can cause damage.
- Regular ear clean-ups: Build up of wax can also be a cause of tinnitus. However trying to clean it at home can cause damage to the ear. A very simple remedy for tinnitus therefore, is to visit a physician to have wax cleaned.
- Regulating cholesterol intake: Tinnitus has been associated with nerve damage. Cholesterol can build up in the nerves leading to the ear, leading to tinnitus. Thus, regulating intake of cholesterol rich foods is also a simple remedy for tinnitus.
- Controlling medication: Aspirin (amongst other drugs) has most often been implicated in having tinnitus as a side effect, thus another important remedy for tinnitus is for the person to be aware of his/her aspirin usage and controls it.
- Earplugs: Another simple and generally effective remedy for tinnitus to use ear plugs. This shuts off sound and gives the ears some much needed rest.
- Mask tinnitus: People suffering from tinnitus often have a hard time when their environment is absolutely quiet. In such situations a simple and practical remedy for tinnitus is to have a sound that masks the tinnitus like a bedside clock or a radio, or even a hearing aid that generates a small sound.
- Relax the nerves: Since tinnitus can be caused by nerve stimulation, another remedy for tinnitus is to avoid stimulating the nerves. Thus, avoiding caffeine and sugar loaded drinks are one way of reducing tinnitus. Also getting enough sleep is also a useful remedy for tinnitus as it helps in calming the nerves down
