Ringing in the Ears - Tinnitus - Ear Noise

[Guest guest]

Ringing in the Ears - Tinnitus - Ear NoiseCauses, Symptoms, and Treatment Options Tinnitus

is the ringing, buzzing, crackling, or hissing sound heard inside one

or both ears. Tinnitus is a result of the brain attempting to " rewire "

itself when the ear has become damaged, resulting in a ringing noise.

Sufferers of tinnitus can experience a wide range of noise creating a

minor annoyance to debilitating pain depending on its severity.

Colds and flu, being in a noisy atmosphere, allergy flare-up, or any

variety of stimuli can increase the intensity of tinnitus noise. Each

sufferer of tinnitus has his/her own experience with it. What brings

relief for one person may not work for another. There are a variety of

natural treatments available to experiment with, but please seek a

physician's care and advice beforehand. Pantothenic acid (B5)

supplements may offer relief since it effectively coats the stressed

nerve endings of the ear.John Hopkins Tinnitus Study

According to a study done at Johns Hopkins University more than 10 percent of adults experience troublesome tinnitus by age 70.

One remedy being looked at by researchers is a new type of hearing apparatus that masks the sound with white noise.
