Tinnitus Home Remedies That Work

ATLANTA - Sept. 2, 2013 - PRLog -- Do you constantly hear an unexplained buzzing sound in one or both of your ears? This condition, known as tinnitus, affects over 50 million people living in the U.S., according to the American Tinnitus Association. Whether your condition is mild or severe, though, there are several home remedies which are proven to effectively treat this frustrating health problem.

Some of the most common sounds associated with tinnitus include ringing, whizzing, chirping, hissing, humming, whistling and buzzing. Those suffering from the condition may experience a variety of sounds in both low and high pitches. It's important to note that not everyone's condition is the same. Some people may hear a constant buzzing sound, while others may hear a humming sound.

The severity of tinnitus can vary form mild to severe. Affecting 2 million Americans, severe tinnitus can make it difficult to perform normal everyday tasks. Being forced to constantly listen to an obnoxious sound that you can't escape is enough to drive anyone crazy, especially when the doctors keep prescribing medicines that don't seem to work. If this sounds like a familiar scenario, you'll be glad to hear that tinnitus can be treated with home remedies.

The first step in beating tinnitus is to schedule an appointment with an ear nose and throat doctor. They'll perform a physical examination of your ear canal to determine whether or not there's any physical problems present. Once you've ruled out some of these problems, you can then begin to work on treating the actual root cause of your tinnitus condition.

Tinnitus is a term used to describe a broad range of hearing problems; therefore, there are dozens of possible causes. In order to treat your specific condition, you must identify what exactly is causing your tinnitus. Prolonged exposure to loud noises, high blood pressure, inner ear muscle spasms, ototoxic drugs, benzodiazepine withdrawals, earwax buildup and abnormal ear bone growth are all known causes of tinnitus.

Of course, age is another contributing factor with tinnitus. It's estimated that as many as 20% of people between the ages of 55 and 65 experience some of the symptoms of tinnitus. To make matters worse, some people assume it's 'normal' to develop hearing problems later in life. But tinnitus is a condition that can be prevented and treated under the right circumstances.

Children who experience symptoms of hearing loss are more likely to develop tinnitus. Because children tend to keep medical problems to themselves, tinnitus has long been associated with adults and elderly. However, recent medical studies have determined that children are susceptible to tinnitus as well.
