FAQ's

Tinnitus is the perception of sound that has no external source. People afflicted with tinnitus often describe it as sounding like ringing, hissing, roaring, buzzing, or whooshing, and it can be perceived in one or both ears. Some people experience tinnitus intermittently; others hear it constantly. Stress, fatigue, anxiety, and other triggers can exacerbate the sound.

First, schedule a consultation with Dr Rohini . To determine the cause and severity of your tinnitus, we will examine your ears, ask about your hearing health, and conduct audiometric testing. Using the information we gather, we will explore the best treatment options for your tinnitus. If medically necessary, we may refer you to another physician to complete the diagnosis.

In many cases, tinnitus dissipates on its own regardless of the cause. However, that doesn’t mean you should wait weeks, months, or even years for your tinnitus to disappear. If your tinnitus continues for more than a couple of weeks and negatively affects your quality of life, consult an audiologist. The sooner you seek help, the sooner you can find a treatment protocol to resolve your tinnitus. This is especially important if your tinnitus grows louder over time, as this may indicate that you suffer from progressive hearing loss.

Some people suffer from long-term or permanent tinnitus. In these cases, one or more of the causes of tinnitus is likely auditory malfunction, which is often caused by hearing loss from loud noise exposure. When the brain attempts to compensate for this malfunction, it can start a vicious cycle that ends in tinnitus. To better understand how this cycle works and how you can end it, consult with an audiologist.

No. Over-the-counter substances and herbal remedies do not work in the treatment of tinnitus. No reliable scientific evidence proves that such substances have any impact on tinnitus. This includes Lipoflavonoid, which has not been approved by the FDA to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent tinnitus. Many of these products are essentially multi-vitamins. Be wary of anecdotal success stories. Sometimes when people take over-the-counter treatments, this coincides with their natural relief from tinnitus, leading them to believe that the treatment has worked. A short-term placebo effect can also cause someone to believe an ineffectual treatment is effective.

For the vast majority of people tinnitus is a spontaneously occurring condition. Although there are recognized triggers, such as exposure to excessively loud noise, for most of us that ringing starts for no reason. However, that said, a few people do have tinnitus as a result of a treatable condition, such as excess earwax or high blood pressure.

Yes! It’s not uncommon to suffer mild hearing loss in addition to tinnitus. Without the distraction of sounds external to the ear, this amplifies how much you notice the tinnitus and makes it more intrusive. Diagnosing hearing loss and wearing a hearing device can greatly reduce how aware you are of the tinnitus, and improve your quality of life on both fronts.

The buzzing of tinnitus is often most noticeable against a backdrop of silence, such as at night. This can make it difficult to get to sleep as the constant ringing is like the buzzing of an ever-present alarm clock that interrupts your rest. However, there are strategies you can put in place to aid a good night’s sleep. If you are suffering from tinnitus or think you might be, it’s important to speak with a qualified hearing care professional. Tinnitus doesn’t have to control your life; schedule an appointment with a hearing health specialist in your area today!

Chronic loud noise such as the noise from a construction site, airplanes, or loud music can damage the nerves and cells in the ear and cause tinnitus. Acute loud noises like a bomb blast can also cause nerve damage and leave the patient with tinnitus. Tinnitus is one of the most common reasons for armed service-related disability.

There is no "cure" for tinnitus. Often the symptoms are transient and related to an episode of sound exposure, infection, or eardrum irritation and will go away on their own. Some people have known triggers of their tinnitus such as caffeine, alcohol, dairy, or chewing gum. Avoidance of things that may reproduce tinnitus such as avoiding loud music or noises, keeping blood pressure under control, and decreasing salt intake may help. Some lifestyle changes can also help with the symptoms of tinnitus such as getting regular exercise, practicing relaxation techniques such as meditation or yoga, and using a white noise machine at night (to cover up the tinnitus sound).

Tinnitus can be the first sign of hearing loss. Damage to the auditory nerve as we age sometimes manifests itself as a ringing or buzzing noise in the ear. Tinnitus can also have a rhythm in time with your heartbeat, called pulsatile tinnitus. This can be caused by a problem with blood flow from the head or neck, and you should check with your doctor if you notice this symptom.

Tinnitus that is caused by damage to the auditory nerve from loud or repetitive noises can be prevented, or prevented from worsening, by avoiding the source of the loud noise or wearing ear protection such as earplugs or earmuffs.

Treatment of tinnitus depends upon the cause. Treatments for tinnitus may include:

  • Avoiding loud noises or wearing ear protection
  • Using sound generators in quiet areas to mask the tinnitus and avoid silence
  • Stress management techniques
  • Hearing aids
  • Medications
  • Biofeedback
  • Counseling
  • Physical therapy
  • Chiropractic
  • Lifestyle changes
  • Testimonial Notes

    What Our Happy Patients Had To Say !!

    Tinnitus had a significant impact on my mood, and there were times when I thought, "This is my life; this is how it'll be from now on." I didn't tell my family anything about it, and I kept a lot of it to myself for a long time. There would constantly be a ringing sound in my ear that made it very difficult for me to sleep . I would without a doubt recommend this centre to everyone. Take a chance! It has an impact on your life, as it has on mine.

    constant ringing in ears
    Bakhshi

    This Tinnitus Clinic makes me feel like they're on my side; they understand what you're going through, there is a constant ringing in ears which makes it very difficult to live a normal life. This gives me the impression that I am in command and that the tinnitus is not in command of me. I owe a lot to Dr. Rohini and the rest of the Tinnitus Clinic's staff.

    persistent tinnitus
    Balendra

    I had persistent tinnitus that was loud enough to make watching TV or listening to the radio problematic, as well as sleeping. I'd check with my hubby to see if he could hear the noise! The next step was when one of my ears, usually my right, went silent (deaf) and the sound seemed to flow from my right ear to my left ear. I'd be so dizzy when the sound struck my left ear that I'd have to crawl. Then I'd be sick to my stomach. As I lay in bed, I felt compelled to grab on to the bed in order to avoid being thrown off. Meniere's illness was identified by my ear specialist, who advised a diuretic and a low-sodium diet. That was helpful, and I started to notice a link between specific foods and my symptoms. Beef turned out to be my deadliest enemy. The second foe was excessive sound. I now have the noise-cancelling earplugs that musicians use. I wear them to loud restaurants, concerts, and other events. That was more than a quarter-century ago. My symptoms are finally under control. I rarely get 'fall-down dizziness.' I'll be able to take Travel-Eze, a motion sickness drug, when I get there. I hope this information is useful to someone else.

    ringing in head
    Balhaar

    I awoke one morning with tinnitus in both ears after a bad ear infection during a particularly stressful period at work I could feel a ringing in my head. The tinnitus persisted even after my ear infection was treated and gone. I'm 80 percent better now. I can still hear the noise, but it isn't nearly as loud as it once was. I'm sleeping regularly again, and I'm going out and socialising again.

    hissing sound in ears
    Baljiwan

    I went to my doctor and told him that I couldn't stand it any longer and that I wanted to end it. It was a high-pitched hissing sound in my ears that was quite disturbing. He said he'd have to section me, which I didn't want, but I couldn't stand the ringing any longer. Then, on the internet, my wife and I discovered This Tinnitus Clinic.

    whistling in ears
    Balvan

    There is a lot of quackery surrounding a problem like tinnitus, but this treatment is clinically proven, which is what drew me to it in the first place. The tinnitus is still there, and I can hear someone whistling in my ears but it's less strident now, and I'm hoping it will fade away eventually so it won't bother me. The treatment was wonderful, and my audiologist has been really patient and helpful throughout the process. My tinnitus has almost completely vanished.

    humming sound in ear
    Balveer

    Tinnitus had a significant impact on my mood, and there were times when I thought, "This is my life; this is how it'll be from now on." I didn't tell my family anything about it, and I kept a lot of it to myself for a long time. I am grateful that this medicine has arrived; otherwise, many others would continue to suffer as I did previously. It appears to be coming down in the left ear... It's starting to feel a little stringy now, as if it's trying to fade out... You wake up one day and realise that things have improved, and you are overjoyed. If you are suffering from this condition I highly recommend this center's Tinnitus treatment in chennai.

    chronic tinnitus
    Banjeet

    Within the first two weeks, I noticed the most dramatic shift, followed by a steady improvement in my symptoms. I went from not knowing if I would sleep at night to falling asleep almost immediately. I went from not knowing if I'd have a nice day to having a string of them. It's difficult to put into words how dramatically the situation improved, but it went from feeling like my head was going to split open to being a little inconvenience, I would constantly hear humming sounds in my ear similar to a scratch on the foot - and the relief has lasted. It appears to work, and for the first time in a long time, I'm enjoying my life again!

    ringing in ears treatment
    Bhaavik

    I'm ecstatic to learn that the treatment is effective. I was given the little clip-on device and earphones after the doctor analysed my tinnitus. I didn't require any additional instructions; the treatment was simple and painless, and I had no concerns because it was non-invasive. After about ten days, I saw a difference. Since then, I've noticed a substantial difference every couple of days as my chronic tinnitus begins to fade. My recommendation is to give it a shot! I'd strongly recommend it because it appears to be working for me.

    buzzing sound in one ear
    Bhavin

    It has unquestionably worked for me. When the ringing becomes too loud because I am tired or stressed from work or something else, I simply get the device and place it in my ear to give myself a break. I can make it loud or quiet according to how I'm feeling, which gives me a sense of power. I recommend going for ringing in ears treatment because the Clinic will be able to tell you if you are suitable. If you are, I would advise you to go for it. I now have tinnitus-free days and tranquil evenings after only six months of treatment.

I'd strongly recommend it because it appears to be working for me.

    humming in ears
    Chaitanya

    Tinnitus affects me as well. Another day of humming in ears and brain. It's okay during the day, but it's a nightmare at night. In a week, I'll see the doctor in the hopes of finding some relief. It's a strange sound that makes me cry at night. I'm afraid to believe it's something more dangerous. It's been a week now. I'm on the verge of quitting. I'm hoping to get a response from this doctor. I really hope it's not a tumour.

    buzzing sound in ear
    Chakradev

    I've suffered from tinnitus for more than 30 years. I've tried everything, from listening to music before bed to eating and drinking; I've kept track of it all. My doctor finally ordered a comprehensive head and inner ear scan for me. Living is a nightmare for me, and I'm currently receiving mental health treatment. It initially caused a lot of disruption in my sleep. At night, it's a lot more distracting. Dramamine is helpful, but it is not a cure for the buzzing sound in ear. Drugs provided relief, but it returned once the steroids had worn off. When my allergies flare up, it's even worse, and I've found that popping my ears helps. Nasal spray steroids OTC have provided me with consistent relief.

    noise in ears
    Chakradhar

    My ENT diagnosed me with tinnitus three years ago, and since then, I've tried practically every medicine and at-home treatment. My symptoms are worse at night, and the noise in my ears has made it difficult for me to sleep. I didn't want to have to take medicine every night, but the pain and ringing were driving me insane. Holy basil ear drops assist to alleviate the agony, and I've finally found a prescription that works for me. I highly recommend Dr. Rohini to anyone who is suffering like me. She is the best at what she does.
