This ringing in my ears is driving me crazy.(

Banned from Google?

You just have a good ear, (I'm serious)

It's not an illness, don't worry

Darn, I have tinnitus too! And I don't hear it when there are other sounds around, but as soon as it gets quiet, that's it, it starts!!

Turn on soft music and set clocks to tick; you probably can hear up to 25,000 Hz, while ordinary people hear up to 20,000 Hz.

When it's quiet, your ear becomes more sensitive, and you can hear high-frequency sounds.

I would get a head tomography just in case. You never know what might be wrong.

Optimists who comfort themselves by thinking they simply have "good hearing," type "Tinnitus" into a search engine. It could be a symptom of serious health conditions.

I had those noises after the sauna too! They did go away eventually, though!!

Go see a cardiologist; it might be related to your blood pressure.

I sometimes have little gray "floaters" in front of my eyes... What could be causing this? I'm serious, not joking!

For those experiencing tinnitus, don't console yourself with having good hearing; humans can't hear above 10,000 Hz. To hear eight, you need super silence.

Tinnitus is a condition called TINNITUS. Buy TANAKAN at the pharmacy and complete a course, then take a break and repeat the course. It's best to find a good ENT specialist.

Osteochondrosis. A good massage is needed and everything will be fine.

They've already made a diagnosis and prescribed treatment, which is good :). You should really go see a cardiologist or a general practitioner.

How old are you? This is observed with high blood pressure. Or, if you have myopia, such symptoms can also occur.

:) 52, blood pressure is very rarely high, and I do have myopia...

An adult with good hearing can hear up to 20,000 Hz, and a child can hear up to 24,000 Hz.

Check an acoustics reference book.

My boyfriend had tinnitus daily for three months. The doctors found nothing. I found a bunch of folk remedies online. One tablespoon of dill seeds steeped in 1 liter of boiling water. Let it sit for an hour. Drink half a glass 2-3 times a day before meals. After two weeks, it was all gone. (The treatment is designed for three months.) He also started eating right, cutting out fatty and fried foods. I hope this helps you.

My acupuncturist mentioned something about it being related to the liver. Maybe the kidneys too. That number 17 confirms it.

These might be earwax blockages. The noise resembles the sound of rain. Visit an otolaryngologist to have them examine and gently rinse your ears. And you shouldn't clean your ears with cotton swabs.

Thank you so much everyone for the advice!! I'll make an appointment with another ENT specialist. And I'll drink some dill tea for now, it can't hurt anyway)

When I developed tinnitus, I immediately went to an ENT specialist. The ENT said everything was fine on their end and referred me to a neurologist. Cervical osteochondrosis was diagnosed. I was treated with the "Milta" device, electro-massage, and various injections. It took about two weeks. Everything went away.

Author, I understand you—the noise is terribly distracting and irritating. Just in case, go see a neurologist too.

When I had tinnitus, I had an ultrasound of my blood vessels, and they discovered osteochondrosis. This was the cause of the tinnitus, especially at night.

My grandfather has tinnitus due to high blood pressure. He has been taking medication to lower it his whole life. Now it's not helping anymore.

Noise can also be observed in healthy individuals who spend most of their time in noisy environments. I once read about this being referred to as a disease of big cities.

Gulia, I've also been suffering for a long time. I've been to an ENT, saw an audiologist, and everything in their field is normal. I visited a neurologist and had a REG done, which revealed that I have very high intracranial pressure, even though my head never hurt. They prescribed treatment, and I'm getting injections. So far, no changes.

My mom has had tinnitus for several years, underwent three surgeries, but all without success... home remedies don't help... pills don't either... she can't sleep at night and is suffering, I'm at a loss for what to do...

I've had tinnitus for about 4 years now. I've recently decided to take it more seriously. I started doing ear massages not long ago and plan to undergo blood vessel cleansing. I think it should help. You can see how I'm doing it here: http://b21v.ru/shum-v-ushah-lechenie-ushey/

Hello everyone!!!! I also suffer from severe ringing in my ears!!! For many years now! And on top of that, I have osteochondrosis and a herniated disc in my cervical spine... I'm really suffering, and I'm only 23... When I'm in a noisy place, I don't notice it, but when SILENCE FALLS, I start to shake!!!!!! I don't know what to do anymore!!!!!!!!!!

Hello. I'm 22 years old. I have the same problem as the thread's author. I'll tell my story in order, so it might help other frustrated people in the future. It all started at the end of 2011. At first, there was a slight noise that appeared when I went to bed, meaning, almost in complete silence. I have a technical mindset, so I started analyzing the situation. Initially, I assumed it was related to technical noise (as mentioned above, it's due to constant noise from cars, airplanes, etc. Basically, from heavy noise exposure to the ears). In my case, I thought it was connected to my computer. It was very noisy when running. I spent a lot of time at it. I decided to test it. I replaced the computer with an almost silent one and worked on it for 4 months. Meanwhile, the noise gradually increased in intensity. So, it wasn't technical noise. My next assumption was optimistic. It was that I had started hearing high-frequency sound signals, but when the noise grew annoyingly loud, even during the day when talking to people, it could be heard, so that idea was dismissed. Then I finally decided to see a doctor. (I endured it until the last moment because I don't like doctors, or rather their indifferent attitude—I don't want to offend good doctors who treat patients with heart and empathy). So, I went to an ENT specialist (paid). He examined me "superficially" and referred me to an audiologist to check for hearing loss. It turned out there wasn't any. And she (the audiologist) referred me to a neurologist, supposedly it could be related to blood vessels in the neck and head. I went to the neurologist. After an examination and some tests (ultrasound of the head and neck, fundus examination), the neurologist didn't give a clear answer but suggested it might be vascular-related and prescribed vasodilators and various vitamins. I took them for 1.5 months. During the treatment, the noise decreased and stopped being irritating, but it didn't disappear. After finishing the treatment, I decided to wait a bit to see what would happen next. Continuation below->

Damn, the noise started increasing again and I got pain in the back of my head when turning it, though not every time, just occasionally. Back to the neurologist. She says - cervical osteochondrosis, prescribes massage and water treatments (swimming). Started treatment. While there was no progress from the treatment, I came up with a new theory (after reading articles online initially) that it might be related to nasal congestion. But here's the nuance, my nose was breathing, but somehow strangely. More precisely, the nose is clear, but breathing is slightly difficult. Gathering knowledge from the internet, I decided that everything revolves around the sinuses (from chronic rhinitis and sinusitis to sinus inflammation). Decided to try sinusitis drops. Bought Tizin. It treats everything that could be wrong with the nose))) Started dripping, the next day the noise decreased, and sometimes it was completely gone. But then the question arises, could the osteochondrosis treatment have helped?!) Stopped dripping again, the noise came back. I sighed with a bit of relief that at least I found the cause. Dripped for three days. The noise comes and goes (it was completely absent one more time). Decided to go to an ENT and tell him all about it. After all, self-treatment is not the best idea))) Went to him today, after my story and a frank hint for a re-examination, he looked into my nose, but more carefully this time, and noticed that either my septum is deviated or something else is crooked in my nose (already forgot what) and said that the ringing could be because of that. I asked him to explain. In short, the essence is this. Because of this deviation, something is pressing on the channels (didn't specify which), this causes swelling, and it can contribute to tinnitus. Verdict: prescribed expensive drops (400 rubles) and vitamin B (intramuscular injections). Said, if everything is correct, the swelling should go down and the noise disappear. But maybe later, it might be necessary to have surgery to prevent this crap from happening again. So. I haven't started treatment yet. Tomorrow I'll begin, and we'll see how it goes. That's my story, hope it helps someone.

P.S. Regarding doctors, here's a clear example: an ENT and a neurologist. The ENT dismissed it, even though they could have identified the cause during the first examination or at least prescribed medication to rule something out—which the neurologist did. Moreover, she made a diagnosis (though unrelated to the noise), but I do have osteochondrosis, and it needs treatment too. Also, don't self-medicate! What I wrote is for reference only, so you might pay attention in case you have the same (or similar) issue. After all, noise can be caused by the nose, osteochondrosis, kidneys, blood pressure, etc. Just look for a good, responsible doctor.

Get well soon!!!!

Congratulations to everyone, this torment is for life =)

Why? If you know something, then explain it.

Tinnitus has many causes, but very often it begins with the development of auditory nerve neuritis. First, there's the noise, then a gradual, unnoticeable decline in hearing and speech discrimination. It's not curable; they might suggest courses of medication to improve cerebral blood circulation. I've had this for 10 years now. I've been examined everywhere possible and taken loads of medications. The constant tinnitus has driven me into a depressive state, and I've started having panic attacks. It's awful... The only thing that provides some relief is hearing aids, which dampen this phenomenon. I want to try ear massage, but I don't have much hope. My mother and grandmother have the same issue, so it seems to be hereditary as well.

Hello, I came across your page,
and honestly, I'm surprised at how little doctors still know about this condition—TINNITUS.
Yes, it's noise, whistling in the ears. We live in Germany, and my husband has had it for three years now.
There are many causes of this condition; you need to check the neck, teeth, spine, but in most cases, it's due to nervous stress. The body simply can't cope with stress, and as with my husband, stress causes the nerve hairs/endings in the ear to die off because they're poorly supplied with blood due to stress. If tinnitus appears, it's urgent (at least here in Germany, all ear/nose/throat doctors know this) to get infusions into the bloodstream or take pills (honestly, I can't say which ones, I'm not a doctor myself). My husband went after a couple of months, and it was already too late. Over time, it gets worse and worse; now he's on sick leave, can't even work, can't hear out of one ear because of the noise, and can't even sleep. We've tried everything possible—acupuncture helps many people!, massages, pills, etc. We don't know what to do; last week, due to work stress, he had three episodes of hearing loss—the noise increased tenfold, I thought my husband would literally jump out the window, I don't know how he'll endure it, we're still trying everything. My advice—try everything, but under a doctor's supervision; I don't recommend putting any homemade tinctures in the ear to avoid burning it.
For many, TINNITUS goes away; you just need to see a doctor in time—the problem, I think, is finding a good one. Good luck to everyone!

And by the way, my husband is also starting to experience panic attacks. The doctor said that if the illness progresses this way, many people need support with medication—antidepressants. Don't refuse them if you're feeling bad; half of Europe takes them. If a person can't handle stress on their own, it's better this way than to jump out of a window!

My husband also tried a hearing aid (borrowed temporarily from the doctor), but these devices are not yet advanced enough in technology for tinnitus; they're mainly for those who can't hear. At least it didn't help him—the noise didn't go away, and when you turn it on, there's even an echo in the ears. They recommend surgery to insert an implant—a cochlear implant—but we read online that there's no guarantee of 100% improvement. We've left this surgery as a last resort. It costs around 40,000 euros; here in Germany, in extreme cases like my husband's, the government covers it. I don't know how it is in Russia.

I also often have tinnitus. I went to a neurologist. They prescribed Mexidol and Cerebrolysin injections, 10 shots each. After completing the course, it went away. But over time, it starts again. On average, I need to do this 2-3 times a year.

I also have that noise. I just haven't done anything about it, and I've been to doctors and tried folk remedies, but nothing works.

One possible cause could be temporomandibular joint dysfunction. It's necessary to get a TMJ X-ray. I had the same issue. However, mine was also accompanied by clicking sounds when opening my mouth and swallowing (some people with this condition may not experience clicking). I visited a good orthodontist several times (they immediately warned me that treatment could be lengthy—from six months to a year), started wearing a mouthguard, and within a week, things began to improve.

Dima, did anything help you?

I'm so fed up, sometimes it's just a whistling, a whistling with noise, and other times it's just a hum. I haven't been able to sleep properly for 2 years... I've had all the tests, all the ultrasounds... an MRI, spent so much time and money, of course, I'm just exhausted and on the edge...(((

Folks, I've had this ringing in my ears for half a year now. I don't know how to get rid of it.

Help, please advise, the noise has been tormenting me for 12 years already.

Maybe my comment will help someone. I had ringing in my ears, no headache, just like the original poster described. Over two weeks, I was examined by an ENT, an ophthalmologist, and a neurologist, with the latter referring me for an MRI since none of them could identify the cause. I decided on my own to try taking motherwort tablets, and by the third day, the noise was gone. It was due to nerves, even though I wasn't consciously aware of any stress—everything seemed fine, but at the same time, my child started kindergarten, and I returned to work after a 3-year maternity leave. That's what caused it all!

Try taking some sedatives. Motherwort tablets helped me.

I've had this noise for 10 years, I can't take it anymore, and it's only getting worse and louder... So I'm sitting here thinking - should I try buying a Milt device? Does it have any contraindications? Does anyone know? I'm ready to pay any amount of money, just to get some relief.

Nothing was helping either, now I'm shelling out 5k per session to a neurologist-osteopath who promised to help... and before that, I went to another one for three years... Where is the way out????????????????????????????????????????????????? Who knows everything about this Milta? On their website, there are only prices and guarantees but no description, it's kind of strange.
