There is currently no scientifically-validated cure for most types of Tinnitus. There are, however, treatment options that can ease the perceived burden of tinnitus, allowing patients to live more comfortable, productive lives.

Did you know? …

A high percentage of those with Tinnitus also have notable hearing loss.

It is important to be aware that treating hearing loss can also help reduce the severity of tinnitus symptoms. By hearing other sounds in their daily environments better, tinnitus or “head noise” can come to be more in the background, not foreground, providing significant relief to those in need. Think about it, when unwanted noises are most or all of what you hear, they can have more negative impact than if they are only one of many sounds, ideally pleasant ones, that you experience. In effect, more pleasant sounds may help to “mask” unpleasant ones.

Groups with higher risk of tinnitus include:

• Seniors
• People frequently exposed to loud noises, such as farmers, hunters or those in industry
• Military personnel
• Those with Meniere’s Disease, an inner ear disorder that can affect hearing and balance
• Those with hyperacusis, which is extreme sensitivity to noise

Given the challenges and complexity in properly managing tinnitus, it is vital to get specialty care from a provider with years of experience and extensive training. Those with tinnitus DO have evidence-based treatment options and, with dedicated effort, personalized care plans can greatly improve quality of life.
