What Causes Tinnitus?
Tinnitus is typically caused by:
- Hearing Loss – Many people who have tinnitus also have some kind of hearing loss.
- Loud Noise – Exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing loss and tinnitus. Continued exposure can make the tinnitus and hearing loss become worse.
- Medication – More than 200 medicines, including aspirin, can cause tinnitus. If you have tinnitus and you take medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist whether your medicine could be the cause.
Kinds of Tinnitus Treatments
A careful review of your health history along with audiometric testing will lead to the most likely causes and best treatment for your tinnitus, including:
- Hearing Aids – Hearing Aids may create dual benefits, by enhancing hearing and/or “masking” the tinnitus. Over 60% of hearing aid users report partial or complete relief from their tinnitus when wearing their devices.
- Sound Therapy – Many hearing instruments now incorporate some form of sound therapy for tinnitus sufferers. Different types of noises or fractal sounds can be used with or without amplification to offer relief from tinnitus. Sound therapy will most often be accompanied by education, counselling, and stress reduction. It may also include professionals from other disciplines.
