Fix My Tinnitus

Ranked #4,964 in Healthy Living, #92,162 overall

I started looking for ways to fix my Tinnitus when I began to notice ringing in my ears about four or five years ago.

Turned out to be Tinnitus, and has slowly gotten louder and louder over the years. When it recently got to the point where it was beginning to get unbearable, I began my search. The main reason I began to search for ways to fix my Tinnitus was because my doctor told me there was not too much I could do about it and that I would have to learn to live with it.

I was not very optimistic but, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that depending on the cause of the Tinnitus, there were many things that you could actually do to fix that annoying ringing in the ears, that just drives you crazy.

Knowing The Cause Can Help Fix My Tinnitus

The most common causes of Tinnitus are:

Aging - as you grow old and begin to lose your hearing the Tinnitus stands out more.

Loud Noise's - exposure to loud noise's for extended periods of time.

Medications - medications can affect blood flow which can cause Tinnitus.

Ear Wax - a build up of ear wax can cause Tinnitus.

Turbulent Blood Flow - damaged or malformed blood vessels in the head around the area of the ear can cause turbulent blood flow which can be hear in the ear.

Once I knew what caused my Tinnitus I knew what to do ti fix my Tinnitus.

Knowing what causes Tinnitus will tell you what treatments will work the best, so let us look a little closer at the causes and what treatments fit the cause the best.

Causes And Treatments To Fix My Tinnitus

First the cause that is the most common, old age, as we age we lose our hearing, and as we lose our hearing we begin to hear that annoying ringing in the ears, the more the hearing loss the louder the ringing. To fix my Tinnitus as it grew louder over the past few years as I grew older, I found out through Tinnitus Miracle, that as I aged my nutritional needs changed as well so, by taking certain supplement's I was able to reduce the level of the ringing to a bearable level. As my hearing loss increase I will most likely need to wear a hearing aid which will not only help me hear better but will amplify the external sounds which will help mask the Tinnitus. Between a hearing aid and supplement's you can bring the ringing in your ears down to a bearable level.

The second most common cause of Tinnitus is exposure to loud noise's for extended periods of time. Did you know that noise's of as little as ninety decibels can cause irreversible damage to your inner ear? The best way I could find to fix my Tinnitus that is caused by loud noise's is to prevent it (I rode a motorcycle for more than sixteen years without a helmet or ant type of hearing protection and average 10,000 miles a year) by wearing ear plugs of ear muffs designed to reduce the level of the sound to a level that does not damage the ear. (Now I wear both a helmet and ear plugs because it's never too late to safe the hearing)

Tinnitus-do you know what it is?- About 50 million people in the US know it, mostly kids, young people. Millions more outside the country. I am not talking about a little ringing you may hear every now and then, or a mild annoyance. I am talking about the OTHER kind, the millions of people suffering from DEBILITATING noise, LOUD NOISE, permanent and hard, very hard to deal with. I've seen lives ruined, I've seen hopelessness. And I simply cannot accept it. The primary Tinnitus Organizations that help with the extreme cases are doing what they can, but they still face the indifference of many. Now that thousands of our Military are returning home with DEBILITATING Tinnitus, now finally, the Government and many other outlets are beginning to pay attention to this sad situation. I am a first a music fan, musician and filmmaker. I am also a Tinnitus sufferer Chances are, your favorite rock, hip hop or country idol has this problem but tells you nothing! Play this loud (ironic isn't it?) and you'll see the nightmare that is TINNITUS and then think about your life style. This is not meant to be negative...it is a simple message. Enjoy life, listen to music (like I do, love music:), but BE CAREFUL, watch your ears, feel what your body is telling you if you are in a noisy place. Use EARPLUGS if its too loud. In the mainstream Film and Music world, people like Moby, Trent Reznor, members from bands like My Bloody valentine, Pearl Jam, people like Keanu Reeves, people like like Will.I.AM, composers like Danny Elfman... (you'll be amazed of the actual list...its long) etc, they have this and struggle with this. And it is a struggle for many, many in the MAJORITY, so, again, I am not talking about a minor noise. And in the case you DO have a little noise, please protect yourself. It is a warning sign, not trying to freak you out (but I must be strong, because sadly, being upfront is the only way sometimes to get people's attention, in this world). NO, I am not telling you: Panic, danger!, red alert!, all I am saying is....take care of your ears, enjoy volume but don't overdo it, be careful. Visit The American Tinnitus Association for more info. This condition happens to anyone, in any age (believe me, this ain't just for old people) TINNITUS- Let's help create awareness AWARENESS = FUNDING FOR A CURE:) IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO POST THIS VIDEO ANYWHERE ELSE, TO HELP IN THE SPREADING OF AWARENESS (NOT TO SELL A PRODUCT), THEN CONTACT ME AT: Cassellajose@yahoo.com OR VISIT THE AMERICAN TINNITUS ORGANIZATION FOR MORE INFO!, don't just do what many do and "yeah, yeah, whatever...", Go there and INFORM yourself, it is simple, type : www.ata.org Mant Thanks:)

The Treatment To Fix My Tinnitus Varies

As you can see the treatments vary depending on the cause, another good example would be medications, with some people, and I have experienced this with cold and flu medications, certain medications can bring on Tinnitus. You should also notice that once you are over the cold or flu that the ringing in your ears will start to go away so, a simple fix for this type of Tinnitus is simply to change medications or wait it out. Now if you are wondering if prescription medications can cause Tinnitus than you should know that yes they can, but you should absolutely not stop taking them until you talk to your doctor. There are many different medications that do the same thing, chances are that your doctor can prescribe something different that won't cause that overwhelming ringing in your ears.

There is one thing you can do that can only help no matter what the cause of the Tinnitus, and that is, your daily diet, if you eat the right foods and take of your body you will improve the blood circulation in body and that, is what helps the body heal more efficiently. The better the blood flows the quicker your body can heal so, no matter what the cause of the ringing in your ears is due to, you can help it heal by staying fit and eating right.
