Tinnitus
Treating Tinnitus
Although there is no medical cure for tinnitus, there are steps a person can take to make the symptoms more manageable or to prevent tinnitus from occurring. Wearing ear protection such as ear plugs or leaving areas exposed to loud noise can prevent damage to hearing and the chances of tinnitus occurring.
Cognitive behavioural therapy can be used to reduce the severity of tinnitus, as well as some relaxation techniques. These are best suited for tinnitus symptoms caused by stress and psychological ailments. If you think you have tinnitus, you should consult your doctor before attempting any treatment.
