I got help in Germany . A really good doctor showed me cognitive excersizes to do which help reduced tinnitus by more than 80%. I recorede the technique ruclips.net/video/9BNNdxKez4w/видео.html
Hey Flacko, absolutely not. From the 1000's of comments you can see there are a lot of people feeling the same, and managing to cope too. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Matthew
My T doesn't seem to react to anything in particular. It spikes sometimes, and I can never find out why. I can have sweets and alcohol one night and almost no T the next day. Then I can have a lovely day off work, lounging, eating healthy.. and suddenly louder T. No patterns found in 5 years.
@@laisa.Same here...my tinnitus vary most day. There is no specific pattern. It is sad that I can't consistently keep that reduced loudness of tinnitus.
I am a 68 french ladie,with light tinitus for 2years no smoking, healthy life and food , no loud noise in my life, thank you for your vidéo. south west France.
I developed my tinnitus one night laying in bed around three months ago. I have seen the ENT doctor multiple times; blood pressure is okay, taken meds which don't work, had AMSA sessions which don't work. Doctors says no wax blockage, pressure (although I feel it) or blocked fluid. I can't see what other avenue I can go down. Having said that, reading the message and seeing the video did make me feel like I am not alone. Best wishes to all of you.
I feel the pressure too even though theres nothing. However I went to a specialist a few weeks ago and she said it was very likely it could be related to my jaw. She said that if I wanted to try she could give me botox injections in my jaw to see if that helps. I am considering it You should see if you might have a similar issue
Ive had tinnitus caused by unprotected exposure to industrial and mining machinery for approximately 45 years. It is very pleasing to view your very informative and caring presentation about a common affliction that was not generally recognised or really taken seriously in the past by many heath care workers for the delertirious effects it can have on individual sufferers. On a personal level I recognised long ago that there is no complete cure for tinnitus and applied my usual general philosophy of - "if after examination of the facts I cannot change things for the better or do anything about it then I'll just have to accept and live with it ". Consequently I just trained myself not to think about it. Its always there in the background. The high pitched scream of jet engines with an undertone of a heavy diesel engine under load at high revs. I first noticed it when I read the title to the video that came up on u tube and its increasing in volume as I write this. I almost never think about it now and it only usually appears when its brought to my attention in one form or another. The factors such as stress and different foods do play a part but its thinking and becoming conscious of tinnitus can make it an interference for me. So I just find some form of mental distraction and put it out of my mind. Its not easy at times such as now but over time you can relegate it to a place of very low sigificance in your life by accepting its permanence whilst ignoring its precence. Easier said than done but given time it works. Hope it helps. Now I'll just have to stop watching videos about tinnitus!
Yes, STRESS is a major culprit in perception of tinnitus more loudly. I developed bilateral tinnitus a year ago at the age of 55. it is fluctuating with almost a fixed pattern, one day or two is high or very high, the following day or days low or even zero. Over and over again, the same pattern! ... I was told to avoid caffeine (classic tea & coffee), and salt, but I learned quitting those things made my tinnitus worse, because my brain interprets it as a stress. I learned all kind of stress have a negative effect on severity of my tinnitus (not necessarily always immediately, but sometimes a few days later), so I'm trying to avoid worries by taking the life as much easy as possible.
@@LevaniAslamazishvili-bz8gm Yes, I do have bilateral mild hearing loss with hyperacusis. I didn't know I had hearing loss until I got an audiogram. Recently I learned to use some sounds to mask my tinnitus (RUclips is one of the best sources of different types of sounds made for tinnitus sufferers. Here is one of the best just as an example: www.youtube.com/@dalesnale). The best tone for me is around 10KH, I think this is the same frequency as my hearing loss because it completely masks my tinnitus and sometimes even helps diminish the severity of tinnitus the next day while I'm outside. So far, managing daily life stress and sound therapy have been the best solutions to cope with tinnitus properly.
I am 59 your story sounds just like mine I was just thinking today to log the changes I do 😊 good to hear from others ...If this is such a problem for so many why are there no real solutions not just theories? 😢 ...thanks for info .
When I have tinnitus in one ear I was told to relax & imagine the same noise coming into the opposite ear at the same (mirrored) angle. I've used this skill so many times i gotten able to trim this fix down to 5 seconds or less, now thankfully.
I haven't been able to hear out of my right ear I was wearing very good hearing aid in until five years ago when my earring went totally. I had my old tinnitus in both ears. Started wearing the hearing aid in my left ear it stopped but I still had it in my right ear. Then 4 years ago I lost all the rest admiring I was devastated my whole life changed. I now have to figure out how I was going to communicate with my family because I knew no sign language. About a week after that the buzzing in my ears again. I went to a ENT. The doctor tried a steroid shot in my eardrum hoping that it would come I went back a week later nothing had changed. That's when he referred me to the calculator implant doctor at UVA. So in May of 2019 I had my first cochlear implant surgery why not right ear, which by then I had been deaf in that ear for 6 years. I began to pray and believe that I would hear normal when they turned it on. So in June of the same year, they activated it. I was blessed because I heard normal voices and the ringing in that ear had stopped. In June of 2020, I had my 2nd calculator implant surgery and it was activated in July of the same year. This one I am still working with to get the noise and the voice is more normal. Far far from being there and it does get aggravating but in the long run it until the ringing started getting so loud then I can't hear anything but the ringing. We have tried everything under the sun and still to this day I cannot get it to stop it is triggering headaches anxiety is through the roof!!! If anyone could give any advice find out you just quiet it down I would greatly appreciate it!!! I don't even want to be around anyone. When I am around people they constantly complain that I'm hollering. I don't feel like I have to over talk this ringing. PLEASE HELP!!! I just want my life back!!!
That is terrible what did the doctors say thevreal cause of your deafness ?? They have to havevsome idea whats going on is this a thing that runs in your familly or a autoimmunity response to something how r u doing now
Stress is a definite contributor to tinnitus. I have sensitivity in my left ear with some high frequency hearing loss as well in same ear. I went to a concert in early June, and came out of it with tinnitus. I figured it would only last a few days, but it went on for 3 months. It DID start to go away near the end of August, but then I got covid. That's when it came back worse than before. My doctor has me booked for an MRI to see if there are any underlaying conditions. My BP is generally around 130/80 and I'm 62 years old, so that's no much of a factor. (It's usually around 125/75, but my tinnitus has my stress and anxiety levels up). I'm looking into CBT and relaxation technics to help me cope. Your videos are very good and helpful! Thank you!
I got tinnitus going to a concert as well but what sucks is my left ear is completely dead so I have to rely on the one ear that has tinnitus I haven’t had it long only 24 hours but I really need it to be done I work at a school so its pretty loud man plus I go shooting among other things I hope and pray you get rid of yours I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.
I have suffered with Tinnitus for 25 years, ever since I hit my head in a car accident. NOTHING changes it, nothing makes it better, nothing makes it worse. It's just a constant high pitched scream in my head 24X7.
Literacy Volunteers HBPL. People have suffered tinnitus all through the ages for thousands of years and the modern, so-called medical profession tell us there is no cure for it! Tinnitus will never be taken seriously to look for a cure until literally everyone gets his or her share of it.
OMG! You're the only one I've heard say they have soles and the tones change and sometimes come out of nowhere. So nice to know I'm not the only one. My tinnitus is also 24/7 and high picked for the most part. Thank you for the ideas!
I'm a musician, pro. I live where it's quieter than a monastery. You muffle a sneeze to not disturb your neighbors. The little bells RING in stereo in the deep quite of the night. I just accept it as my space alien friends singing in their choir for my amusement.
I like that. I actually told my doctor just that. Maybe it's the aliens or my deceased mother messing with me. That's the humorous side to this debilitating condition. I have it since December of 2022 and most days it's just unbearable. I actually have 2 sounds that fluctuate and it's just awful. I sure hope something helps soon or I feel I'll go Mad! Thanks for sharing you amusing post. Thoroughly enjoyed it. 👀
_My_ trigger is tension in the neck from sitting at a desk for a few hours. _Nobody_ ever seems to mention this as a possible trigger. (Initially, my tinnitus was caused by an 'innocent' slap to the ear).
me too, 3rd vertebra from skull and jaw joints is where my tinnitus originates from, my chiropractor has helped so much with regular adjustments....age 65 now
You are the first person to mention a slap on the ear. I believe that caused mine too. From an early age I was subjected to frequent hard slaps on the ear from my mother; occasionally hard enough to knock me off my feet. I was about ten years old when I discovered that not everyone heard a constant loud hissing all the time. So I've had it for over 70 years and it's getting worse. I also have very bad neck tension; I've had that since childhood too.
Mine clearly seems coming from tension, since I can toy around with it with that. When I tense my neck muscles or anyhting around the head, the tinnitus goes up immmensely, sometimes stay a bit stronger and highter, while slowly fading. When I rub the sides of my ears to warm them up, this will give at least short term relief and so on. Overall this of course goes along with stress, as some of my other symtpomes, including hurting teeth and pain in the neck and shoulders, as a doctor explained me once: those muscles from your back, crossing your neck up to your ears(!) are those which react very strong to stress.
On point number one I’ve been carrying earplugs (recently bought Loop, very good!) around with me all the time, as you never know when you’ll be in a loud environment.
ENT is a complete waste of time; first they put you on a 12/16-week waiting list and then all they do once you get to see them is check your hearing (waste of time). So-called doctors no nothing about tinnitus, which makes them worse than useless as well.
I totally disagree and I think that you've been seeing really bad doctors. The main reason I went to an ENT doctor was because of the tinnitus and that was the best thing that I ever did. The ENT practice that I go to is completely amazing and they have amazing doctors and there's also an audiologist in the back portion of the office. I only have tinnitus in one of my ears and I'm losing hearing. I was sent for an MRI and it turned out I have a tumor in my brain called an acoustic neuroma that right now is under observation because it's small. But it's also giving me a lot of other symptoms. I'm really glad that I went to the ENT doctor and I highly recommend this doctor. I don't know what city you are in but I'm in Philadelphia PA and if you would like a recommendation please let me know.
@@marciwhitman3513 But they didn't help you with your tinnitus! I'm talking only about tinnitus for the moment and there are no doctors and any so-called specialists that can help you with this terrible condition, they don't know anything about it.
@@redblade8160 they told me what was causing my tinnitus. And no there are no cures for it but there are treatments so you should definitely investigate those treatments. There are some videos that you can look at on RUclips that will help you to find treatments and hopefully one or two of those treatments will help you. Don't give up on all doctors just yet
Mi trigger is taking a an afternoon nap. Stress and red wine. The way I deal with this is; I imagine I have the power to hear cosmic sound, and then I ignore it. I never get upset. It sometimes goes away for a day or two. I also eat only real food, nothing processed and eat low carb plus intermittent fasting. I also do breathing exercises. I don't let tinnitus ruin my life.
my tinnitus is improving , omg I am so grateful, i had this high pitched sound for 2 months and now is more like a an ocean wave sound :D much more bearable , I am so happy
I only have it in one ear. I went to a hearing aid place and she said I had fluid behind both eardrums(and some wax in the ear that was ringing) I went to ent and he prescribed prednisone. I was having pain as well. I took a zpaK that ends tomorrow and I begin the presnisone tomorrow… I pray for everyone suffering and a cure
Changes I've made to my diet to lessen the Tinnitus: no caffeine, no cannabis, no alcohol. I wear hearing aids which helps mask the high pitches. After covid, however I developed thumping as well.
Good video. Journal is good idea. Currently my pattern is 2 to 3 good days of low tinnitus and 4 days of high levels. One day a week of possible extreme tinnitus w/high emotions attached=Bad day! If that persist longer I will take Lorazepam to calm down which usually "resets" my mood and sound levels.
Thank you for your practical and realistic talk about Tinnitus. While listening...my Tinnitus appeared . This is habituation which has worked most of the time.
My tinnitus spiked to a major degree last night. I went to bed, and everything was normal. I woke up at 2:30 this morning with this incredibly loud screech in my head that has taken on a couple of extra frequencies including this undulating high frequency. If this were the new normal, I'd lose my mind. I'm already losing it.
My doctor wanted me to cut out an opioid med for migraines that I had been on for yrs so I cut to 3/4 to start , it affected sleep & tinnitus went extreme upon awakening for several days & kept getting worse daily, like a fire truck horn in my head so I called & went back to whole tablet , got better after 2nights & tinnitus masking sounds on utube dailey
I worked in a noisy factory for 28 years, ear protection was not introduced till the late 1980s, by that time my tinnitus was well in my head! - I have the tweeting like 50 or more budgies in my ears and on top of that I receive like crackling along with it now and then! I have hearing aids that I purchased last year, But only wear them when with family as I am not used to hearing proper sounds like planes flying overhead! I don't watch TV as my wife can hear a fly fart, which results in the volume on the TV being too low for me! I am in my 70s now and a carer for my wife, so I am on the go all day/every day! I have gave up hope in finding a cure, as there isn't one! Yet maybe once every two months the tinnitus stops for a day or two - My wife can tell when I haven't got ringing in my ears, so obviously I am a jackal and Hine!
Well done Matthew,for the good words of knowledge shared freely. I pray you will persevere and continue to bear your suffering -and also be healed by your faith.✝️❤️
I found out over the time that my tinnitus worsens when I spend more than 5 or 6 hours during the day without eating... around 1 hour after I eat (a healthy meal) it turns down drastically
Great video , tinnitus is a nightmare, tried a couple of treatment none worked for me , that’s why I will always be grateful to dr Ogbebor herbal centre RUclips channel for curing me with his herbal medicine ear drops .PEACE
Hector. Very strange; I'm the opposite; my tinnitus only reduces when I stop eating altogether for 2/3 days and starts up again as soon as I do eat again.
@@hectoralejandroperezquinta7638 No serious research is going on to find the reason for tinnitus (despite what you've heard) and therefore no cure will ever be found.
After waiting 20 months my appointment to ENT clinic finally came on the 28th of March I will take the first step to finding out what’s going on , pressure build up ..not being able to pop my ears pain , high pitch noice and hushing noises, plus extremely itchy ears no wax . Hearing loss ..muffled. Fingers crossed. Take care x
20 months waiting for ENT appointment???? Where the hell do people wait 2 years to see an ears, nose , throat doctor? Do you live on the moon? I live in Poland, not the most advanced country in the world, I waited 3 weeks!
@@abritandhisbikeinpoland6802 Not sure what you mean by larangologist. I don't have a voice problem, I have a tinnitus problem. I had to wait 18 months to see an ENT consultant about my tinnitus, on the NHS.
No caffeine no smoking no alcohol no anxiety laughter very important. Don’t watch any movies that are anxiety filled. Develop better attitude with your relationships. Be more compassionate, surround yourself with positive people. Stay away from people who are very negative green leafy vegetables, at least eight glasses of water a day, in my opinion, no fatty foods no fried foods fruits vegetables no fatty cheeses. A little bit of feta cheese is OK. No tea nothing acid producing. Organic yogurt low sugar stay away from Salt. I’m not an expert I’m not a nutritionist. I’m just someone who has tinnitus that prescribes to a more healthy diet and has reduced my tinnitus by 50%.
Hey Stephen. Thanks for sharing what works for you. I'm great to hear that with some strict management you've found something that really helps for you. Keep up the awesome work! Matthew
Steve, are you serious? If you are that is unbelievable 😂. I’m a mid range sufferer & been looking for the answers via lifestyle/intake changes etc (though I’m quite mild anyhow). The idea of monitoring myself to your degree, cutting out this & that,abstaining is massively stress inducing. & to quit drinking is next level. If you’re getting desired result, 50% is not bad. Well done
I found that first reducing, then eliminating carbohydrates has made a spectacular and decisive difference to my tinnitus. On a scale of 1 - 10, my tinnitus rarely went below a 6; after removing carbs from my diet, I average a 2 - 4. Stress is a factor, as is ear wax; but I can't find a doctor or audiologist anywhere that will do anything about the build-up; in spite of using wax-softening measures, everyone refuses to syringe or suction my ears for fear of exacerbating the problem! Stress, I can work with. Carbs aren't a problem. But ear wax? That's a bloody nuisance!
There is a product you can get for wax removal from BOCOOLIFE ear wax removal system. I found on amazon around $15 easy to use warm water irrigation do it yourself. I use it in the shower or over a sink.
I appreciate this comment. I suspect it is carbs as well. It gives me a lot of throat mucus and clearing my throat blew out my right ear, I believe. I will see if cutting carbs will work for me too.
Yeah, Dr. Ben Bikman talks about insulin resistance possibly being the cause or contributing factor of both tinnitus and Meniere’s Disease. This is great to see this post. I’m hoping low carb and fasting will help with 30+ years of tinnitus from Meniere’s. Thank goodness I no longer get the vertigo.
I am 50, I'm a long term tinnitus sufferer of 25 years. in 2 weeks I am about to undergo my 3rd round of Tympanoplasty following chronic cholesteatoma that was missed for 20 years... Maybe obvious to some, but Viagra and its copies, magnify tinnitus to an overwhelming level. There is definitely a pay-off but the noise can be a little bit too consuming. So my advice is, if you are not 'on top' of your tinnitus avoid ED medicines.
I have had tinnitus for at least 25 years, not sure where I got it from. I went through hell sleeping for about 5 of those years until I found a weird way of stopping it temporarily. I used to pour "cold" water into my right ear, the ear I had tinnitus in and it would stop the noise. Pouring water in your ear probably isn't great but I did this every night for 3 years until I started using a loud fan every night. Now I use sleeping apps on my phone, I listen to the sound of wind, storms and rain. Technology has saved me from torment that's for sure.
@@veltonmeade1057 not sure how good it is for you though. The strange thing is you have about 15 mins and when the water gets to room temperature you can hear the noise again, Strange as it sounds.
@Hew Jarsols Hello I wouldn't try unless last resort. I just listen to the sound of wind or a fan does it in the summer, any sort of white noise is good. RUclips has been a life saver to be honest. Try sleeping apps first, I have really low profile earphones which allow me to sleep on a pillow without the earphone digging into my ear. water in the ear was last resort and before I had a phone able to play the variety of sounds like modern phones. I guess though not everyone likes the sound of wind or white noise, Hope it's not to bad for you.
I’ve been suffering with my tinnitus 24/7 for about four years after getting corona virus. It’s a high pitched screeching that i hear more when it is quiet in the room. I went to an ENT and they cleared my ear wax and gave me a hearing test and i found i cant hear high pitched sounds. I don’t feel the hearing loss is much so chose not to get hearing aids. Tinnitus sucks.
Never clean your ear wax.. Just leave it as it is or use ear drops.. Igot this Tinnitus after actual cleaning my left ear with a Suction pump by an ENT..
Sometimes after İ have dinner İt starts more. İ dont smoke. İ rarely drink alcohol which İ like. İ have a stressed life. My parents open up the tv very loud and they are old and very nervous. İ am an artist. İ have low blood pressure and pms resulted migrain sometimes. İ have a sleep problem but when my sleep gets in its normal program İ sleep better. My depression and anxiety is also another level. Thank you so much.
Life-long sufferer of Tinnitus. It's not curable and anyone who says so is a iiar. I have to sleep with a fan on just for the white noise. White noise helps greatly but any old noise will do as long as it is non-intrusive.
I have noticed that salt is a trigger for my tinnitus. I have a sensitivity to salt, and allergic to MSG. It is very hard to avoid salt in certain foods, I eat as healthy as I can, vegetables, meat, and salads. And almond butter, to get proteins that my diet does not provide. (No salt and sugar added)
I actually find when I eat spicy foods, an my bloating goes down my tinnitus eases of slightly, good balance diet, trying my best with my stress-anxiety, an also breathing technics all helps…
I love how u reply to people. Very good video my dear. I have been cursed w this and I’m a gym buff and I feel when I do a strong back and shoulder work out it gets wirse
Hey Ljake, I'm pleased to hear that you have your ways of coping! Keep up with the gym, it will keep your head healthy too. I wish I had a theory on why this makes it worse. Does it last for an extended period of time afterwards? Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Matthew
It's over 3 months that I'm going through hell. I never knew about tinnitus until it happened overnight. I keep searching for a remedy . Mine is definitely due to stress. I only hope it won't do permanent damage to my brain.

Am I the only one who suspects cell phones and wi-fi as contributing to tinnitus? I never had it until my wife and I had cell phones for a while. And it seems like it has gotten worse since we got a wi-fi router, and wi-fi became common EVERYWHERE you go.
Nope, you're not the only one. I am very sensitive to the newest powerful cell phones that have cordless charging and MagSafe strong battery in the phone. So I took back the newest iPhone and I took back the hi-end Samsung with all the fancy and powerful do-dads. And then I bought mid-range Samsung Galaxy A53 5G and it seems to be okay. I never use my bluetooth earbuds anymore and when I talk on my cell phone I hold it away from my head. Just...fyi.
After 4 years of quit smoking gave me great amounts of anxiety and led to my hyperacusis and then tinnitus. I have of course a bit of hearing loss because of loud music
I've discovered an antihistamine connection and the reduction of tinnitus. Anyone else? I also gave up coffee almost three weeks ago and there seems to be a reduction. Why has tinnitus become a pandemic?
Interesting you say that pulsatile tinnitus could be something more serious and should be checked out urgently. After waiting 18 months for an ENT appointment at my local hospital (mainly a referral for viral labyrinthitis brought on by Covid), I mentioned my pulsatile tinnitus to the consultant and asked if it was a sign of a more serious underlying condition. He said it was quite common and nothing to worry about. I felt relatively relieved at the time, although I did wonder if he was just fobbing me off. I've had normal tinnitus on and off since as far as I can remember (in my 20s, and I'm now in my 60s) - the usual ringing, buzzing, humming - but I just learned to live with it so it's never really bothered me. Since I got Covid in 2020 though it has gotten a lot louder and more varied. The pulsatile tinnitus pre-dates Covid but that's definitely worsened too. Covid is the virus that keeps on giving. Think I might get a second opinion on the pulsatile tinnitus. Might have to go private though as I don't fancy waiting another 18 months for an appointment. So much for our NHS.
I have also pulsatile tinnitus, one of the reason can be contact from the 8nerve (we have 12 nerves in our brain) with one of our enlarged blood vessels. The 8th nerve is in contact with our ear and how we can hear. Have had several MRI scans which indicated enlarged blood vessels by MRI scan. If one of those enlarged blood vessels is in contact with the 8th nerve it can cause pulsatile tinnitus. Of course every situation is personal. So to find out cause of pulsatile tinnitus is an MRI or CT scan from the head needed. There have been solutions by operation where a piece of medical teflon sheet was used and placed between the 8th nerve and the enlarged contacting blood vessel. As the contact was gone between the 8th nerve and the enlarged blood vessel, so was the tinnitus. Unfortunately there a not many specialists who have experience with this type of operation, when tinnitus can be cured in this way.
Very thorough, relaxed and well explained run through, of a complex issue. I developed one ear tinnitus, post-vaccine and have had it thoroughly checked. Stuck with it, it would appear, but managing it, using many of the methods highlighted here. It's never easy, but for sure, obsessing about it, is probably one of the worst culprits in that self-perpetuating cycle. Thank you for a great video...
I have seen both an MD and audiologist. My tinnitus is mainly in the left ear. The MD said that the tinnitus is a result of a lifelong experience of left temple migraine headaches. I do not get the pounding pain anymore, but the tinnitus can be overwhelming. The MD said that there is new research being published exploring the correlation between migraine and tinnitus:the headache will not occur, but the tinnitus will ( I think of it in the same way an amputee will feel the amputated limb though it is nit there). I view the tinnitus as a manifestation of a painless migraine.
About 20 yrs ago I was then in my 50s I was walking to the grocery store when I realized there was a ringing in my ears. When I came home I thougt it would leave me as fast as I experienced it happening. Never happened. I still have it to this day. I never seemed professional advice from any Dr.. I researched it in my own & came to conclusion this is what I had to live with. A relative if my husband said that her sister also had it & when she went check it out with her Dr. he told her there was nothing that could be done medically for her. So now I guess it saved me a lot of unnecessary costs to seek medical advice to no avail. Most times it us not as annoying but lying still it becomes very annoying. I understand there are some capsules or pills in the market today. I will try tem & see or rather hear lol
I’ve found that consuming sodium dramatically increases my tinnitus, usually within 15-20 minutes. So obviously I’m now following a super low sodium diet. I still have really bad spikes some days, often related to stress, but occasionally for no reason I can figure out.
we should address the underlying main issue here in the gut problems.. my tinnitus flares up when im bloated or i consume too much sweets and salty stuff.. when ur gut is iflammed it sends stress signal to ur brain and thats when the ringing flares up.. im not a doctor im just basing this in my very own experience..
About a year ago I started noticing ringing in my ears when waking up (even from a nap). It goes away after about 10 minutes. I was wondering if anyone else has this and could it be a precursor to having tinnitus all the time?
Do you have it all the time now or is it still the same. I get that ringing that comes and goes after seconds here and there. But don’t know if it will ever be a constant ring at some point it worries me to no end
Ive had this crap for years. Stay busy and be around others so you can talk to them. Above all things avoid stress if you have a bigmouth in your presence send them packing stay away from those people.
I’ve watched dozens and dozens of videos supposedly telling me how to help my tinnitus. The only help they’ve been is distracting me from it for a few minutes.
You have such a lovely soothing reassuring way of speaking and feel better just hearing your advice mine started after having a virus and waiting to start a new job so finances are a bit tighter than normal I have a supportive partner so don’t feel too overwhelmed but think it’s a combination of being ill and stress when I had Covid last year my ears were muffled for a while so maybe that could be connected as well ?
I got tinnitus at 25 after taking anti biotics. At 64 now I think I cope quite well now. I get spikes for various reasons, usually stress and loud noise. I find ear wax makes it far worse too. I control it by keeping ears clean, reducing loud noise, reducing stress and keeping healthy and avoiding getting depressed.
When I am anxious the ringing in my left ear gets worse. I didn’t have this ringing until I fainted and hit my face and that has cause my anxiety and the ringing.
Ive had tinnitus for 5 years in both ears due to ear infection and noise exposure and my advice is don't let it get worse with the biggest offender being ototoxic medication which in my three experiences has made my tinnitus sharper, louder and rawer/ more piercing and, although after 2 - 3 months it subsided to a base/ manageable level, each time it failed to settle back down to what it was before taking the medication. Second offender is sudden sharp loud noises which I have had quite a few of but never lasting damage/ always settled back down to what it was previously after 2 - 3 weeks, sometimes its only lasted hours then settled back down (I carry foam ear plugs to go out and if I'm going somewhere I suspect could be loud I also take ear defenders). Second bit of advice is make sure that you don't have wax in your ears or near or on you eardrum as in my experience multiple times after getting wax out my tinnitus has become almost inaudible (wax removed via an ENT using manual extraction as apparently microsuction is too loud near the eardrum which can aggravate tinnitus). As well using distilled water ear drops put in a glass pipette bottle helps to remove ear wax. I have experienced severe tinnitus in both ears for extended periods but as for my tinnitus now my left ear is pretty inaudible its only when I lay on the pillow is when it becomes louder and bothersome but I can sleep through it, however my right ear is mild/ moderate and when I lay on the pillow it becomes quite severe, although I can still sleep through it depending on how tired I am (I sleep with 9000Hz white noise and a fan). The best way I can describe the tinnitus in my right ear when not laying down is by using audionotch's tuner on 9550Hz at 1% volume and computer volume at 24 although the tinnitus doesn't sound quite like that and its not as pronounced as the pure tone/ the tinnitus has more of a dispersed effect.
also got it through ear infection, it’s been close to a year now…i want to ask a few questions, do you experience pain in the ear and also has it increased in volume since the onset?
My tinnitus started about 6 months ago as a result of a one year tapering from benzodiazepines. I've read it's a very common withdrawal symptom. TMJ is another very common withdrawal symptom of which I was just diagnosed 2 weeks ago, which has made my tinnitus worse.
Nothing helps tinnitus. It’s awful. Doesn’t seem to be affected by stress or diet etc. been told by ENT there was nothing that could be done and “ how about some hearing aides”. Said no to that.

I got tinnitus about two and a half years due to severe depression and negative thoughts or anxiety. I was suffering from insomnia. After being treated for the same, I came out of depression four months but the tinnitus stayed on. I'm on an anti-depressant and tranquiliser. I'm on antihypertensive drugs too and a blood thinner, anti-cholestrol drug. I have cervical spondylitis with slight compression of C-3 to C-6. My tone is FM and loudness of 35 dB and frequency of 1 KHz.
What a wonderful video to watch! I am almost stone deaf in my right ear & have a Cochlear Implant in my left ear. Tinnitus varies & I will watch all your videos to learn more. Many Thanks! :) :) :)

Many thanks for these good explanations, doctor. One day, suddenly my tinnitus disappeared and I'm still trying to find out the causes for that miracle. Unfortunately, tinnitus returned back in about ten days. The sensations I enjoyed having no buzzing for a few days, were way beyond compare. Nowadays, I'm still suffering the abnormality but I think that I got used to that and if I don't get obsessed, the suffering is not so much serious.
That has happened to me as well.. it has gone away for a few days but then it comes back for days on end. Sometimes very loudly… but other times on a scale of 1-10 only a 3-4… then a 5-6.. then a 2…. At night it seems to get louder. I am so tied of living like this. It started in August if 2022 then I passed out from low potassium, broke my ankle.. I don’t recall hitting my head at all but am not 100% certain. The tinnitus started about a week later and has not stopped. I pray it goes away but am afraid it never will. I have read head trauma can cause it .. and that sometimes 6-12 months later it goes away. I pray that happens to me as this is horrible…. just horrible. If feel for everyone living with this.
Doctor- do you know of any cases of tinnitus resolving 6-12 months after a possible head trauma? I am 5 months out as of yesterday. Thank you so very much!!
@@janab1173 yes you sound like me. Can be a 3-4 , maybe at night a 5?. Couple of days ago was really low(maybe a 2). I knocked my head after a big night out in 2013 & got tinnitus mid 2020- though I don’t think it’s related!. I believe is years of stress & diet.
Reduce anxiety by not watching the news no coffee, caffeine or nicotine no alcohol. Lots of salad, green leafy vegetables, arugula. Stay away from anxiety, causing people, smokers, complainers, etc. stay away from loud noises. I don’t go to casinos or bars with trouble awaits.
I am 62, I am always being told to get hearing aides, that is the only way I am going to help my Tinnitus, but when I saw they hurt, I mean my ears hurt. MRI says they don't have anything wrong with them, so guess they don't hurt, but THEY DO HURT!! Here is my list of complications with my hearing: 24/7 buzzing (my crickets) which I have had for over 8 years, recently I have a new sound along with the buzzing which is clicking. The clicking is not as constant, but seems to be getting there. Both ears burn, both ears feel like a river is running through them. Very much worse if I have a pain anywhere in my body or if I am stressed or tired or when things are quite. So when I say mine hurt bad, I mean I literally can not hear myself think.
Doesn't the t.v..make it worse or at least maybe it could in the long run? Since t.v.s let out a high frequency and also can contribute to insomnia..maybe white noise would be better to mask the noise without the frequency or all the bright flashing lights.
@@gcas1097 people have different masking method her is turining on the tv if it masks the tinnitus to help you sleep then its ok also it will not damage you in the long run even it have high frequency
For me to avoid loud noise I should wear earprotection. But then I would need to remove my hearing aid first, to be able to use the protection. What is the answer to that?
I have reduced my tinnitus from level 11 to level 1 within a year. Sometimes I have silent days, this is becoming more and more common. I am sure anyone can do this.Tinnitus is a problem of an underlying issue. It can be many things that cause tinitus.You need to doe some research and work on it.

Salt, Alcohol, very cold foods (eg. popsicles), high sugar foods, sleep deprivation, stress, neck tension: These immediately ramp up the tinnitus.
How about lots of sex ??
My T doesn't seem to react to anything in particular. It spikes sometimes, and I can never find out why. I can have sweets and alcohol one night and almost no T the next day. Then I can have a lovely day off work, lounging, eating healthy.. and suddenly louder T. No patterns found in 5 years.

I developed my tinnitus one night laying in bed around three months ago. I have seen the ENT doctor multiple times; blood pressure is okay, taken meds which don't work, had AMSA sessions which don't work. Doctors says no wax blockage, pressure (although I feel it) or blocked fluid. I can't see what other avenue I can go down. Having said that, reading the message and seeing the video did make me feel like I am not alone. Best wishes to all of you.
Covid
I feel the pressure too even though theres nothing. However I went to a specialist a few weeks ago and she said it was very likely it could be related to my jaw. She said that if I wanted to try she could give me botox injections in my jaw to see if that helps. I am considering it
You should see if you might have a similar issue
How was your day the T appeared or your psychological state in the moon it occurred...
Mine started one day after taking antibiotics out of the blue. I’ve read antibiotics and antidepressants can cause it.
@@atamburoI took ciproflaxin and woke up with tinnitus.
Ive had tinnitus caused by unprotected exposure to industrial and mining machinery for approximately 45 years.
It is very pleasing to view your very informative and caring presentation about a common affliction that was not generally recognised or really taken seriously in the past by many heath care workers for the delertirious effects it can have on individual sufferers.
On a personal level I recognised long ago that there is no complete cure for tinnitus and applied my usual general philosophy of - "if after examination of the facts I cannot change things for the better or do anything about it then I'll just have to accept and live with it ".
Consequently I just trained myself not to think about it. Its always there in the background. The high pitched scream of jet engines with an undertone of a heavy diesel engine under load at high revs.
I first noticed it when I read the title to the video that came up on u tube and its increasing in volume as I write this.
I almost never think about it now and it only usually appears when its brought to my attention in one form or another.
The factors such as stress and different foods do play a part but its thinking and becoming conscious of tinnitus can make it an interference for me.
So I just find some form of mental distraction and put it out of my mind. Its not easy at times such as now but over time you can relegate it to a place of very low sigificance in your life by accepting its permanence whilst ignoring its precence.
Easier said than done but given time it works. Hope it helps.
Now I'll just have to stop watching videos about tinnitus!
Yes it is! Stress sleep deprivation anxiety over finances an concerns over my son and grandson since the mom took off!
Yes, STRESS is a major culprit in perception of tinnitus more loudly. I developed bilateral tinnitus a year ago at the age of 55. it is fluctuating with almost a fixed pattern, one day or two is high or very high, the following day or days low or even zero. Over and over again, the same pattern! ... I was told to avoid caffeine (classic tea & coffee), and salt, but I learned quitting those things made my tinnitus worse, because my brain interprets it as a stress. I learned all kind of stress have a negative effect on severity of my tinnitus (not necessarily always immediately, but sometimes a few days later), so I'm trying to avoid worries by taking the life as much easy as possible.
Good to know
Did you have high frequency hearing loss
@@LevaniAslamazishvili-bz8gm Yes, I do have bilateral mild hearing loss with hyperacusis. I didn't know I had hearing loss until I got an audiogram. Recently I learned to use some sounds to mask my tinnitus (RUclips is one of the best sources of different types of sounds made for tinnitus sufferers. Here is one of the best just as an example: www.youtube.com/@dalesnale). The best tone for me is around 10KH, I think this is the same frequency as my hearing loss because it completely masks my tinnitus and sometimes even helps diminish the severity of tinnitus the next day while I'm outside. So far, managing daily life stress and sound therapy have been the best solutions to cope with tinnitus properly.
Do you still suffer from fluctuation or habituated?
I am 59 your story sounds just like mine I was just thinking today to log the changes I do 😊 good to hear from others ...If this is such a problem for so many why are there no real solutions not just theories? 😢 ...thanks for info .
When I have tinnitus in one ear I was told to relax & imagine the same noise coming into the opposite ear at the same (mirrored) angle. I've used this skill so many times i gotten able to trim this fix down to 5 seconds or less, now thankfully.
wow thank you for that advice... i have it only in one ear, and i think its because of an ear infection. i will try this.
OMG THIS WORKS FOR ME
Listening to your videos give me hope. Mine is mentally debilitating.
I haven't been able to hear out of my right ear I was wearing very good hearing aid in until five years ago when my earring went totally. I had my old tinnitus in both ears. Started wearing the hearing aid in my left ear it stopped but I still had it in my right ear. Then 4 years ago I lost all the rest admiring I was devastated my whole life changed. I now have to figure out how I was going to communicate with my family because I knew no sign language. About a week after that the buzzing in my ears again. I went to a ENT. The doctor tried a steroid shot in my eardrum hoping that it would come I went back a week later nothing had changed. That's when he referred me to the calculator implant doctor at UVA. So in May of 2019 I had my first cochlear implant surgery why not right ear, which by then I had been deaf in that ear for 6 years. I began to pray and believe that I would hear normal when they turned it on. So in June of the same year, they activated it. I was blessed because I heard normal voices and the ringing in that ear had stopped. In June of 2020, I had my 2nd calculator implant surgery and it was activated in July of the same year. This one I am still working with to get the noise and the voice is more normal. Far far from being there and it does get aggravating but in the long run it until the ringing started getting so loud then I can't hear anything but the ringing. We have tried everything under the sun and still to this day I cannot get it to stop it is triggering headaches anxiety is through the roof!!! If anyone could give any advice find out you just quiet it down I would greatly appreciate it!!! I don't even want to be around anyone. When I am around people they constantly complain that I'm hollering. I don't feel like I have to over talk this ringing. PLEASE HELP!!! I just want my life back!!!
😢
That is terrible what did the doctors say thevreal cause of your deafness ?? They have to havevsome idea whats going on is this a thing that runs in your familly or a autoimmunity response to something how r u doing now
Stress is a definite contributor to tinnitus. I have sensitivity in my left ear with some high frequency hearing loss as well in same ear. I went to a concert in early June, and came out of it with tinnitus. I figured it would only last a few days, but it went on for 3 months. It DID start to go away near the end of August, but then I got covid. That's when it came back worse than before. My doctor has me booked for an MRI to see if there are any underlaying conditions. My BP is generally around 130/80 and I'm 62 years old, so that's no much of a factor. (It's usually around 125/75, but my tinnitus has my stress and anxiety levels up). I'm looking into CBT and relaxation technics to help me cope. Your videos are very good and helpful! Thank you!
sir, so the cause of your tinnitus is exposure to concert sound?
Any update after the MRI? I've been experiencing Tinnitus for about 2 months now and the doctor mentioned an MRI if I get more ear / neck soreness.
My tinnitus got way worse after Covid. Before a 1 or 2 on a scale of 1-10. Now a 6-8 at all times.
@@andpeggy532 did it go down if not how do you deal with it?
I got tinnitus going to a concert as well but what sucks is my left ear is completely dead so I have to rely on the one ear that has tinnitus I haven’t had it long only 24 hours but I really need it to be done I work at a school so its pretty loud man plus I go shooting among other things I hope and pray you get rid of yours I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.
I have suffered with Tinnitus for 25 years, ever since I hit my head in a car accident. NOTHING changes it, nothing makes it better, nothing makes it worse. It's just a constant high pitched scream in my head 24X7.

People have suffered tinnitus all through the ages for thousands of years and the modern, so-called medical profession tell us there is no cure for it! Tinnitus will never be taken seriously to look for a cure until literally everyone gets his or her share of it.

Thank you for the ideas!
Does it give you anxiety to you ever just only focus on it? If not then how do you do it
No. No anxiety even when I focus on it bc I know there's nothing I can do about it. I just keep busy.
I'm a musician, pro. I live where it's quieter than a monastery. You muffle a sneeze to not disturb your neighbors. The little bells RING in stereo in the deep quite of the night. I just accept it as my space alien friends singing in their choir for my amusement.
I like that. I actually told my doctor just that. Maybe it's the aliens or my deceased mother messing with me. That's the humorous side to this debilitating condition. I have it since December of 2022 and most days it's just unbearable. I actually have 2 sounds that fluctuate and it's just awful. I sure hope something helps soon or I feel I'll go Mad! Thanks for sharing you amusing post. Thoroughly enjoyed it. 👀

_My_ trigger is tension in the neck from sitting at a desk for a few hours. _Nobody_ ever seems to mention this as a possible trigger.
(Initially, my tinnitus was caused by an 'innocent' slap to the ear).
me too, 3rd vertebra from skull and jaw joints is where my tinnitus originates from, my chiropractor has helped so much with regular adjustments....age 65 now
I hope you innocently popped them in the mouth!
My tinnitus has coincided with neck issues, will look into, thanks.
You are the first person to mention a slap on the ear. I believe that caused mine too. From an early age I was subjected to frequent hard slaps on the ear from my mother; occasionally hard enough to knock me off my feet. I was about ten years old when I discovered that not everyone heard a constant loud hissing all the time. So I've had it for over 70 years and it's getting worse. I also have very bad neck tension; I've had that since childhood too.
Mine clearly seems coming from tension, since I can toy around with it with that.
When I tense my neck muscles or anyhting around the head, the tinnitus goes up immmensely, sometimes stay a bit stronger and highter, while slowly fading.
When I rub the sides of my ears to warm them up, this will give at least short term relief and so on.
Overall this of course goes along with stress, as some of my other symtpomes, including hurting teeth and pain in the neck and shoulders, as a doctor explained me once: those muscles from your back, crossing your neck up to your ears(!) are those which react very strong to stress.
On point number one I’ve been carrying earplugs (recently bought Loop, very good!) around with me all the time, as you never know when you’ll be in a loud environment.
ENT is a complete waste of time; first they put you on a 12/16-week waiting list and then all they do once you get to see them is check your hearing (waste of time). So-called doctors no nothing about tinnitus, which makes them worse than useless as well.
Hey Redblade, that's an all to common story. I hope that you manage to find help. Thanks for watching, Matthew
I totally disagree and I think that you've been seeing really bad doctors. The main reason I went to an ENT doctor was because of the tinnitus and that was the best thing that I ever did. The ENT practice that I go to is completely amazing and they have amazing doctors and there's also an audiologist in the back portion of the office. I only have tinnitus in one of my ears and I'm losing hearing. I was sent for an MRI and it turned out I have a tumor in my brain called an acoustic neuroma that right now is under observation because it's small. But it's also giving me a lot of other symptoms. I'm really glad that I went to the ENT doctor and I highly recommend this doctor. I don't know what city you are in but I'm in Philadelphia PA and if you would like a recommendation please let me know.

I hate tinnitus ☹️
Mi trigger is taking a an afternoon nap. Stress and red wine. The way I deal with this is; I imagine I have the power to hear cosmic sound, and then I ignore it. I never get upset. It sometimes goes away for a day or two. I also eat only real food, nothing processed and eat low carb plus intermittent fasting. I also do breathing exercises. I don't let tinnitus ruin my life.
You're the first person I've come across that has tinnitus triggered b/c they took a nap...mine does the same!

How do you think this happened?
How? Please share….
I only have it in one ear. I went to a hearing aid place and she said I had fluid behind both eardrums(and some wax in the ear that was ringing) I went to ent and he prescribed prednisone. I was having pain as well. I took a zpaK that ends tomorrow and I begin the presnisone tomorrow… I pray for everyone suffering and a cure
Thanks for sharing Lee! I hope that you can overcome it. Matthew

How long you drink prednison
How did it work for you?

Changes I've made to my diet to lessen the Tinnitus: no caffeine, no cannabis, no alcohol. I wear hearing aids which helps mask the high pitches. After covid, however I developed thumping as well.
Listen to your videos give me hope. Mine is mentally debilitating.
Good video. Journal is good idea. Currently my pattern is 2 to 3 good days of low tinnitus and 4 days of high levels. One day a week of possible extreme tinnitus w/high emotions attached=Bad day! If that persist longer I will take Lorazepam to calm down which usually "resets" my mood and sound levels.
Thank you for your practical and realistic talk about Tinnitus. While listening...my Tinnitus appeared . This is habituation which has worked most of the time.
My tinnitus spiked to a major degree last night. I went to bed, and everything was normal. I woke up at 2:30 this morning with this incredibly loud screech in my head that has taken on a couple of extra frequencies including this undulating high frequency. If this were the new normal, I'd lose my mind. I'm already losing it.
Stay strong man you got this 👍 💪 🙏

I have hearing aids that I purchased last year, But only wear them when with family as I am not used to hearing proper sounds like planes flying overhead! I don't watch TV as my wife can hear a fly fart, which results in the volume on the TV being too low for me! I am in my 70s now and a carer for my wife, so I am on the go all day/every day! I have gave up hope in finding a cure, as there isn't one! Yet maybe once every two months the tinnitus stops for a day or two - My wife can tell when I haven't got ringing in my ears, so obviously I am a jackal and Hine!

No caffeine no smoking no alcohol no anxiety laughter very important. Don’t watch any movies that are anxiety filled. Develop better attitude with your relationships. Be more compassionate, surround yourself with positive people. Stay away from people who are very negative green leafy vegetables, at least eight glasses of water a day, in my opinion, no fatty foods no fried foods fruits vegetables no fatty cheeses. A little bit of feta cheese is OK. No tea nothing acid producing. Organic yogurt low sugar stay away from Salt. I’m not an expert I’m not a nutritionist. I’m just someone who has tinnitus that prescribes to a more healthy diet and has reduced my tinnitus by 50%.
Hey Stephen. Thanks for sharing what works for you. I'm great to hear that with some strict management you've found something that really helps for you. Keep up the awesome work! Matthew
Steve, are you serious? If you are that is unbelievable 😂. I’m a mid range sufferer & been looking for the answers via lifestyle/intake changes etc (though I’m quite mild anyhow). The idea of monitoring myself to your degree, cutting out this & that,abstaining is massively stress inducing. & to quit drinking is next level. If you’re getting desired result, 50% is not bad. Well done

Caffeine intake increase cause my tinnitus.
@@monicaj1712 that could do it yes. Plus grinding teeth can
I found that first reducing, then eliminating carbohydrates has made a spectacular and decisive difference to my tinnitus. On a scale of 1 - 10, my tinnitus rarely went below a 6; after removing carbs from my diet, I average a 2 - 4. Stress is a factor, as is ear wax; but I can't find a doctor or audiologist anywhere that will do anything about the build-up; in spite of using wax-softening measures, everyone refuses to syringe or suction my ears for fear of exacerbating the problem! Stress, I can work with. Carbs aren't a problem. But ear wax? That's a bloody nuisance!
Thanks for the tips Alexandra! I’ll take care of your wax. Matthew
There is a product you can get for wax removal from BOCOOLIFE ear wax removal system. I found on amazon around $15 easy to use warm water irrigation do it yourself. I use it in the shower or over a sink.
I appreciate this comment. I suspect it is carbs as well. It gives me a lot of throat mucus and clearing my throat blew out my right ear, I believe. I will see if cutting carbs will work for me too.
Yeah, Dr. Ben Bikman talks about insulin resistance possibly being the cause or contributing factor of both tinnitus and Meniere’s Disease. This is great to see this post. I’m hoping low carb and fasting will help with 30+ years of tinnitus from Meniere’s. Thank goodness I no longer get the vertigo.
come to Italy where I have a audiologist. fantastic healthcare
I am 50, I'm a long term tinnitus sufferer of 25 years. in 2 weeks I am about to undergo my 3rd round of Tympanoplasty following chronic cholesteatoma that was missed for 20 years... Maybe obvious to some, but Viagra and its copies, magnify tinnitus to an overwhelming level. There is definitely a pay-off but the noise can be a little bit too consuming. So my advice is, if you are not 'on top' of your tinnitus avoid ED medicines.
I have had tinnitus for at least 25 years, not sure where I got it from. I went through hell sleeping for about 5 of those years until I found a weird way of stopping it temporarily. I used to pour "cold" water into my right ear, the ear I had tinnitus in and it would stop the noise. Pouring water in your ear probably isn't great but I did this every night for 3 years until I started using a loud fan every night. Now I use sleeping apps on my phone, I listen to the sound of wind, storms and rain. Technology has saved me from torment that's for sure.
G etting cold water in the ear is how i got vertigo. Now every time to go a swimming pool i use ear plugs.
I am going to try your "cold water" method, interesting.
@@veltonmeade1057 not sure how good it is for you though. The strange thing is you have about 15 mins and when the water gets to room temperature you can hear the noise again, Strange as it sounds.
@Hew Jarsols Hello I wouldn't try unless last resort. I just listen to the sound of wind or a fan does it in the summer, any sort of white noise is good. RUclips has been a life saver to be honest. Try sleeping apps first, I have really low profile earphones which allow me to sleep on a pillow without the earphone digging into my ear. water in the ear was last resort and before I had a phone able to play the variety of sounds like modern phones. I guess though not everyone likes the sound of wind or white noise, Hope it's not to bad for you.
I’ve been suffering with my tinnitus 24/7 for about four years after getting corona virus. It’s a high pitched screeching that i hear more when it is quiet in the room. I went to an ENT and they cleared my ear wax and gave me a hearing test and i found i cant hear high pitched sounds. I don’t feel the hearing loss is much so chose not to get hearing aids. Tinnitus sucks.
Never clean your ear wax.. Just leave it as it is or use ear drops.. Igot this Tinnitus after actual cleaning my left ear with a Suction pump by an ENT..
Sometimes after İ have dinner İt starts more. İ dont smoke. İ rarely drink alcohol which İ like. İ have a stressed life. My parents open up the tv very loud and they are old and very nervous. İ am an artist. İ have low blood pressure and pms resulted migrain sometimes. İ have a sleep problem but when my sleep gets in its normal program İ sleep better. My depression and anxiety is also another level. Thank you so much.
You might have tmj. Open your mouth and if your Jaws click then you might have tmj
Yep kept a journal.. has helped and I can go days without tinnitus.
Hey Ruthless, I'm really pleased to hear that. Keep up the good work! You got this. Matthew
Life-long sufferer of Tinnitus. It's not curable and anyone who says so is a iiar. I have to sleep with a fan on just for the white noise. White noise helps greatly but any old noise will do as long as it is non-intrusive.
I have noticed that salt is a trigger for my tinnitus. I have a sensitivity to salt, and allergic to MSG. It is very hard to avoid salt in certain foods, I eat as healthy as I can, vegetables, meat, and salads. And almond butter, to get proteins that my diet does not provide. (No salt and sugar added)
Sodium is a huge trigger for me too. It’ll cause a bad spike within 15-20 mins and will last for a couple of days.
Thank you so much for this video.
Tinnitus can also occur from TMD and specifically from TMJ.
Hey Maggie, yes you’re right! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Matthew

As I read the comments & listen to the video I am hearing ringing.
I’m hearing ringing as I’m reading the comments and listening to this video too!
Am I the only one who suspects cell phones and wi-fi as contributing to tinnitus? I never had it until my wife and I had cell phones for a while. And it seems like it has gotten worse since we got a wi-fi router, and wi-fi became common EVERYWHERE you go.
Interesting.
Nope, you're not the only one. I am very sensitive to the newest powerful cell phones that have cordless charging and MagSafe strong battery in the phone. So I took back the newest iPhone and I took back the hi-end Samsung with all the fancy and powerful do-dads. And then I bought mid-range Samsung Galaxy A53 5G and it seems to be okay. I never use my bluetooth earbuds anymore and when I talk on my cell phone I hold it away from my head. Just...fyi.
Maybe it's from listening to the cell phone at a high volume because radio frequencies do not cause tinnitus lol
Thanks a lot for this video , truly enjoy watching .
Hey Maya, I'm really pleased to have helped. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. Matthew
After 4 years of quit smoking gave me great amounts of anxiety and led to my hyperacusis and then tinnitus. I have of course a bit of hearing loss because of loud music
I've discovered an antihistamine connection and the reduction of tinnitus. Anyone else? I also gave up coffee almost three weeks ago and there seems to be a reduction. Why has tinnitus become a pandemic?
I think the Bells Palsy Ive had for 6 months has affected my nerves . And the Chemotherapy Ive had , Pacitaxel and Carboplatin.
Amazing tips, thanks a lot!
Interesting you say that pulsatile tinnitus could be something more serious and should be checked out urgently. After waiting 18 months for an ENT appointment at my local hospital (mainly a referral for viral labyrinthitis brought on by Covid), I mentioned my pulsatile tinnitus to the consultant and asked if it was a sign of a more serious underlying condition. He said it was quite common and nothing to worry about. I felt relatively relieved at the time, although I did wonder if he was just fobbing me off. I've had normal tinnitus on and off since as far as I can remember (in my 20s, and I'm now in my 60s) - the usual ringing, buzzing, humming - but I just learned to live with it so it's never really bothered me. Since I got Covid in 2020 though it has gotten a lot louder and more varied. The pulsatile tinnitus pre-dates Covid but that's definitely worsened too. Covid is the virus that keeps on giving. Think I might get a second opinion on the pulsatile tinnitus. Might have to go private though as I don't fancy waiting another 18 months for an appointment. So much for our NHS.
I have also pulsatile tinnitus, one of the reason can be contact from the 8nerve (we have 12 nerves in our brain) with one of our enlarged blood vessels. The 8th nerve is in contact with our ear and how we can hear. Have had several MRI scans which indicated enlarged blood vessels by MRI scan. If one of those enlarged blood vessels is in contact with the 8th nerve it can cause pulsatile tinnitus. Of course every situation is personal. So to find out cause of pulsatile tinnitus is an MRI or CT scan from the head needed. There have been solutions by operation where a piece of medical teflon sheet was used and placed between the 8th nerve and the enlarged contacting blood vessel. As the contact was gone between the 8th nerve and the enlarged blood vessel, so was the tinnitus. Unfortunately there a not many specialists who have experience with this type of operation, when tinnitus can be cured in this way.
I have found taking melatonin really helps me, it really calms me down!!
@Ak169what was in the herbs?
Hey Cheryl, that's interesting. Thank you for sharing. Matthew
Thank you for this information.😊
Hey Lynda, you're welcome. Thanks for watching, Matthew
I had an MRI scan and my tinnitus seemed worse thereafter. Subsequently a nurse confirmed this to be the case. Any opinions?
Thats what happened to me
Very thorough, relaxed and well explained run through, of a complex issue. I developed one ear tinnitus, post-vaccine and have had it thoroughly checked. Stuck with it, it would appear, but managing it, using many of the methods highlighted here. It's never easy, but for sure, obsessing about it, is probably one of the worst culprits in that self-perpetuating cycle. Thank you for a great video...
I have seen both an MD and audiologist. My tinnitus is mainly in the left ear. The MD said that the tinnitus is a result of a lifelong experience of left temple migraine headaches. I do not get the pounding pain anymore, but the tinnitus can be overwhelming. The MD said that there is new research being published exploring the correlation between migraine and tinnitus:the headache will not occur, but the tinnitus will ( I think of it in the same way an amputee will feel the amputated limb though it is nit there). I view the tinnitus as a manifestation of a painless migraine.
About 20 yrs ago I was then in my 50s I was walking to the grocery store when I realized there was a ringing in my ears.
When I came home I thougt it would leave me as fast as I experienced it happening.
Never happened. I still have it to this day.
I never seemed professional advice from any Dr..
I researched it in my own & came to conclusion this is what I had to live with.
A relative if my husband said that her sister also had it & when she went check it out with her Dr. he told her there was nothing that could be done medically for her.
So now I guess it saved me a lot of unnecessary costs to seek medical advice to no avail.
Most times it us not as annoying but lying still it becomes very annoying.
I understand there are some capsules or pills in the market today. I will try tem & see or rather hear lol
I’ve found that consuming sodium dramatically increases my tinnitus, usually within 15-20 minutes. So obviously I’m now following a super low sodium diet. I still have really bad spikes some days, often related to stress, but occasionally for no reason I can figure out.
we should address the underlying main issue here in the gut problems..
my tinnitus flares up when im bloated or i consume too much sweets and salty stuff..
when ur gut is iflammed it sends stress signal to ur brain and thats when the ringing flares up..
im not a doctor im just basing this in my very own experience..
Thanks for this info. I started when I was taking atenolol not on it anymore. I wish I never started this medication. Blessings 🙏 ✝️
Hey Linda, thanks for sharing your experience with the world. I hope that it eases, Matthew
It’s ridiculously crazy how in 2024 with the great technology and advanced medicine, Tinnitus can not be “seen” through any test :(
Nothing I haven't heard before, and consulting the doctor? Doctors just tell you that you have to learn to live with it😢
Excellent presentation
About a year ago I started noticing ringing in my ears when waking up (even from a nap). It goes away after about 10 minutes. I was wondering if anyone else has this and could it be a precursor to having tinnitus all the time?
Do you have it all the time now or is it still the same. I get that ringing that comes and goes after seconds here and there. But don’t know if it will ever be a constant ring at some point it worries me to no end
Thats how mine also started
I've also heard that playing in rock bands in your 20s and 30s increases tinnitus in your 50s.... ask me how I know!
My tinnitus fluctuates or worsens when it is a windy day, or a rainy day
Hey Charles, that's some interesting feedback. I'll look into this. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Matthew
Ive had this crap for years. Stay busy and be around others so you can talk to them. Above all things avoid stress if you have a bigmouth in your presence send them packing stay away from those people.
THERE ARE PERIODS OF TIME MINE GOES AWAY UNTIL STRESS RETURNS
Hey Larry! Yes! if those bigmouths bring you stress then I couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Matthew
Everything I try to make the tinnitus get better actually makes it worse.
I hope you’re seeking help! Matthew
I’ve watched dozens and dozens of videos supposedly telling me how to help my tinnitus. The only help they’ve been is distracting me from it for a few minutes.
You have such a lovely soothing reassuring way of speaking and feel better just hearing your advice mine started after having a virus and waiting to start a new job so finances are a bit tighter than normal I have a supportive partner so don’t feel too overwhelmed but think it’s a combination of being ill and stress when I had Covid last year my ears were muffled for a while so maybe that could be connected as well ?
I got tinnitus at 25 after taking anti biotics. At 64 now I think I cope quite well now. I get spikes for various reasons, usually stress and loud noise. I find ear wax makes it far worse too. I control it by keeping ears clean, reducing loud noise, reducing stress and keeping healthy and avoiding getting depressed.
The same happened to me after taking anti biótics ,rotator cuff and tinnitus …😢
@@QUECHULAESPUEBLA94 oi
Too much talking get to the point gets very boring
Antibiotics for me as well. Gentamicin
Stay strong 💪 everyone
When I am anxious the ringing in my left ear gets worse. I didn’t have this ringing until I fainted and hit my face and that has cause my anxiety and the ringing.
Ive had tinnitus for 5 years in both ears due to ear infection and noise exposure and my advice is don't let it get worse with the biggest offender being ototoxic medication which in my three experiences has made my tinnitus sharper, louder and rawer/ more piercing and, although after 2 - 3 months it subsided to a base/ manageable level, each time it failed to settle back down to what it was before taking the medication.
Second offender is sudden sharp loud noises which I have had quite a few of but never lasting damage/ always settled back down to what it was previously after 2 - 3 weeks, sometimes its only lasted hours then settled back down (I carry foam ear plugs to go out and if I'm going somewhere I suspect could be loud I also take ear defenders).
Second bit of advice is make sure that you don't have wax in your ears or near or on you eardrum as in my experience multiple times after getting wax out my tinnitus has become almost inaudible (wax removed via an ENT using manual extraction as apparently microsuction is too loud near the eardrum which can aggravate tinnitus). As well using distilled water ear drops put in a glass pipette bottle helps to remove ear wax.
I have experienced severe tinnitus in both ears for extended periods but as for my tinnitus now my left ear is pretty inaudible its only when I lay on the pillow is when it becomes louder and bothersome but I can sleep through it, however my right ear is mild/ moderate and when I lay on the pillow it becomes quite severe, although I can still sleep through it depending on how tired I am (I sleep with 9000Hz white noise and a fan).
The best way I can describe the tinnitus in my right ear when not laying down is by using audionotch's tuner on 9550Hz at 1% volume and computer volume at 24 although the tinnitus doesn't sound quite like that and its not as pronounced as the pure tone/ the tinnitus has more of a dispersed effect.
also got it through ear infection, it’s been close to a year now…i want to ask a few questions, do you experience pain in the ear and also has it increased in volume since the onset?
My tinnitus started about 6 months ago as a result of a one year tapering from benzodiazepines. I've read it's a very common withdrawal symptom. TMJ is another very common withdrawal symptom of which I was just diagnosed 2 weeks ago, which has made my tinnitus worse.
I had tmj for like 2 years a long time ago. I hope I never get that problem again I couldn't even chew Mac n cheese
Nothing helps tinnitus. It’s awful. Doesn’t seem to be affected by stress or diet etc. been told by ENT there was nothing that could be done and “ how about some hearing aides”. Said no to that.
My friend got the Covid Vaccine then he got severe Tinnitus, i see other people saying the exact some thing in other videos.
Hey Jeff, yes there is research out there showing a correlation. Thanks for watching, Matthew

I got tinnitus about two and a half years due to severe depression and negative thoughts or anxiety. I was suffering from insomnia. After being treated for the same, I came out of depression four months but the tinnitus stayed on. I'm on an anti-depressant and tranquiliser. I'm on antihypertensive drugs too and a blood thinner, anti-cholestrol drug. I have cervical spondylitis with slight compression of C-3 to C-6. My tone is FM and loudness of 35 dB and frequency of 1 KHz.

Many thanks for these good explanations, doctor. One day, suddenly my tinnitus disappeared and I'm still trying to find out the causes for that miracle. Unfortunately, tinnitus returned back in about ten days. The sensations I enjoyed having no buzzing for a few days, were way beyond compare. Nowadays, I'm still suffering the abnormality but I think that I got used to that and if I don't get obsessed, the suffering is not so much serious.

That has happened to me as well.. it has gone away for a few days but then it comes back for days on end. Sometimes very loudly… but other times on a scale of 1-10 only a 3-4… then a 5-6.. then a 2…. At night it seems to get louder. I am so tied of living like this. It started in August if 2022 then I passed out from low potassium, broke my ankle.. I don’t recall hitting my head at all but am not 100% certain. The tinnitus started about a week later and has not stopped. I pray it goes away but am afraid it never will. I have read head trauma can cause it .. and that sometimes 6-12 months later it goes away. I pray that happens to me as this is horrible…. just horrible. If feel for everyone living with this.
Doctor- do you know of any cases of tinnitus resolving 6-12 months after a possible head trauma? I am 5 months out as of yesterday. Thank you so very much!!
@@janab1173 yes you sound like me. Can be a 3-4 , maybe at night a 5?. Couple of days ago was really low(maybe a 2). I knocked my head after a big night out in 2013 & got tinnitus mid 2020- though I don’t think it’s related!. I believe is years of stress & diet.
@@b-dogs1038 if stress and anxiety was eliminated immensely would too the tinnitus?

Microsuction caused sudden hearing loss for me. That is a side effect no MD discussed with me before just doing it. Be warned.
Reduce anxiety by not watching the news no coffee, caffeine or nicotine no alcohol. Lots of salad, green leafy vegetables, arugula. Stay away from anxiety, causing people, smokers, complainers, etc. stay away from loud noises. I don’t go to casinos or bars with trouble awaits.
So, basically, stay away from anyone i know 😂
I am 62, I am always being told to get hearing aides, that is the only way I am going to help my Tinnitus, but when I saw they hurt, I mean my ears hurt. MRI says they don't have anything wrong with them, so guess they don't hurt, but THEY DO HURT!! Here is my list of complications with my hearing: 24/7 buzzing (my crickets) which I have had for over 8 years, recently I have a new sound along with the buzzing which is clicking. The clicking is not as constant, but seems to be getting there. Both ears burn, both ears feel like a river is running through them. Very much worse if I have a pain anywhere in my body or if I am stressed or tired or when things are quite. So when I say mine hurt bad, I mean I literally can not hear myself think.
I have to sleep with the TV on to drown out the noise in my head.
Doesn't the t.v..make it worse or at least maybe it could in the long run? Since t.v.s let out a high frequency and also can contribute to insomnia..maybe white noise would be better to mask the noise without the frequency or all the bright flashing lights.
@@gcas1097 people have different masking method her is turining on the tv if it masks the tinnitus to help you sleep then its ok also it will not damage you in the long run even it have high frequency
Hey Theresa, I used to do the same with the radio for many years! Thank you for sharing and taking the time to comment! Matthew
For me to avoid loud noise I should wear earprotection. But then I would need to remove my hearing aid first, to be able to use the protection. What is the answer to that?
I have reduced my tinnitus from level 11 to level 1 within a year. Sometimes I have silent days, this is becoming more and more common. I am sure anyone can do this.Tinnitus is a problem of an underlying issue. It can be many things that cause tinitus.You need to doe some research and work on it.
