    For me, 10-15 minute hot showers are such a blessing! I always feel strong relief, and sometimes it completely disappears for hours. Extra bonus: however, im not sure if its safe for everyone but I tilt my head to the side, gently pour water over it with a delicate stream, with a slightly warm temperature, ensuring the water doesnt immediately enter the ear but slowly fills it instead. I hold this position for about 10 seconds before tilting my head to let the water drain out. I repeat this process up to maximum three times.
    Remember to always stay calm, dont you dare have dark thoughts, someday it will be cure for that. I'm with you ❤

      Second tip is to gently plug your ears with your fingers, close your eyes, and focus on the idea that this sound shouldnt exist at all, and that its solely produced by your brain.

    This has been helpful. My tinnitus started November 2023. In hindsight my ears
    Felt
    Clogged occasionally and then I would
    Have intermittent low hissing prior.
    Then before Thanksgiving ,
    My left ear went into a constant hiss mode and has never stopped. I saw an ENT. I had imaging done and all was normal and I was
    Told that I would eventually get used to this sound. I saw an Audiologist that told me there was slight hearing loss in my left ear but I can still hear pretty well. I became desperate and thats how I stumbled onto Treble Health. Sound therapy helps me a lot especially rain and crickets. This is still relatively new for me but I know it’s not something I can ignore or
    Adjust to. I want to learn how to manage it and if it stopped one day that would be fantastic. What’s nice to know is that I’m not crazy and there are so many others as I’m
    Finding out that also suffer with tinnitus but have learned how to manage it and carry on. That’s what I’m
    Working on now. Thank you Treble Health.

      ​​⁠greetings from Australia. Great content. Thank you. Can I ask your opinion.
      I have had mild tinnitus for approx 15 years. Never really bothered me. Probably around a 2. Could only really notice it if I was in an air tight room but never during the day or evening and never when sleeping.
      Around 6 weeks ago, during a hair cut I felt some uncomfortable pain in my ears when the barber trimmed with the electric shaver. Probably only for about a minute each side.
      I didn’t think much of it but a few days later my tinnitus spiked to an 8 and hasn’t subsided, I hear it all the time and have trouble sleeping.
      The ENT says the low decibels could not damage your hearing but I’m 99% sure this was the cause of the spike.
      Have you had any patients that have similar experiences.? Do these type of spikes ever settle back to previous volume?

    It's great to hear stories of relief and that sound therapy and CBT can make things better. @Dr. Ben, greetings from Bulgaria! What is your opinion on soft laser therapy (also called laser acupuncture)?
    I searched for a video on that, but I could not find such, is there one?
    Is it harmless? I personally can accept it not being effective, but causing harm (hearing problems at old age, for example) is something that would put me off. I searched for the device being used at a medical center near by - output power: 10-80 mW, wavelength: 660 nm. I hesitate whether to give it a try.

    Helpful! I also have many sounds but I think not as debilitating as for Susan (thankfully the fire alarm in my right ear is quite restrained). My big dilemma at the moment is whether I should abandon my passion for motorcycling. Given that helmet noise can often exceed 110db I wonder if even using the best ear protection (I think custom-made plugs can attenuate by 40db) still means it's inevitable that at some point I would incur further damage (e.g. via an ill-fitting plug) and mean my condition may spiral out of control? Is there advice for participating in such activity, in that eventually you will inevitably cause further damage no matter how careful you are? It will be a major disappointment if I had to give up but I'm just happy that I can function at the moment.

    • @treblehealth
      @treblehealth  6 месяцев назад

      We understand your concern and glad you are protecting your ears! Our goal would be to get under 85 dB. So if you could get custom 25 dB noise reduction earplugs, that would be sufficient!

    • @treblehealth
      @treblehealth  7 месяцев назад +1

      Tinnitus does not inevitably get louder or worse over time. Other factors such as increased stress, anxiety or lack of sleep may cause the perception of tinnitus to be louder. Use sound therapy at a soft volume in the background during the day to allow your brain to concentrate on something else. We would be happy to discuss further with you in a complimentary consultation. treble.health/international-consultation

      ​@treblehealth Everyone who has had tinnitus seems to say it gets louder in time, it doesn't always then?. I got mine from trauma and living in a never ending nightmare at the moment. I have the guilt of if I hadn't gone to that appointment I wouldn't be like this and I had a good life. My story is the exact same as Susan's 'Constant changing sounds throughout the day with different pitches, the one which is my main tone is the one I am frightened of'. As soon as I hear it I start to have a panic attack.

    Question for the Dr Ben and anyone else who has experience.
    Can MRI scans make Tinnitus worse? Would you recommend someone who recently developed tinnitus go for an mri scan?
    The ent specialist I have been talking to has gave me a date for an mri scan but all my instincs say don't put your head in a spinning magnet. If my tinnitus get 0.1% worse, it's the end for me. I am just holding it together just now.
    Any advice would be appreciated. I understand an mri scan is part of the process but all my instincs say don't do it. What's people thoughts?

    • @treblehealth
      @treblehealth  7 месяцев назад +1

      Hi, thank you for reaching out. We recommend holding off on the MRI, if you are able to, since there is already much anxiety surrounding the MRI. Since MRI's can be loud, they can cause a fluctuation in tinnitus which is why it's important to use hearing protection when getting an MRI.

      I just had a MRI done last weekend and used ear plugs. I was also nervous that my Tinnitus would get worse but I was ok. I found out that there are different types of MRI's. I had what's called a open or sitting MRI and it's supposed to be less noisy then a regular MRI (completely inside of the tube, the one we all usually think of).
      The sitting MRI was a little loud at times but I can't compare to a regular one as I have never had that.
      Mine lasted 15 minutes as they were checking for my neck/shoulder area for a different reason.
      Maybe you can talk to your doctor to see if that is an option.
