The most common sounds of tinnitus are; hissing, ringing, knocking, whooshing, clicking, whistling, ticking, etc., and these are the symptoms of tinnitus. But tinnitus is itself a symptom of other conditions that cause the tinnitus. How would you describe your sounds?
There are several mainstream treatments available to help combat the sounds of tinnitus, such as; treatment with drugs (e.g. antidepressants, antihistamines, anticonvulsants, cardiovascular), complimentary treatments (e.g. yoga, meditation, acupuncture, hypnosis), tinnitus maskers, hearing aids, and very rarely surgery.
However, no proven medical cure for tinnitus has yet been discovered, which is why around 93% of tinnitus sufferers never find total relief from their symptoms, i.e. the sounds of tinnitus.
Recognize any of those sounds above? Sounds of tinnitus fall into 2 categories; those that only the sufferer hears, and, those that a healthcare professional can hear as well (with a special instrument). The first is known as subjective tinnitus and the second objective tinnitus. Subjective tinnitus is more common and is what is covered here.
Because of this, alternative treatments for tinnitus are being looked at very seriously by many people being driven crazy by their tinnitus. And there are many research programs on the go as we speak.
