In the noisy world in which we live today, it is difficult to know just how damaging some of these everyday noises can be to our hearing, and to learn this damage is what causes ringing noises we sometimes hear. Much of this excess noise, and the damage it does to our hearing, is often caused by modern technology. For example, playing music too loud on your ipod can easily damage the sensitive parts of the inner ear. Ringing sounds can be traced directly to exposure to loud noises in the vast majority of cases.
Tinnitus Is The Name
The technical name for these ringing noises is Tinnitus. Tinnitus can have many causes including exposure to loud noises, over-the-counter and prescription drugs, lack of sleep and stress and anxiety.
Without normal sound waves to interpret, your brain will add sounds of its own, which can be ringing that someone with tinnitus hears. This explains why with subjective tinnitus (which includes the vast majority of cases), only the sufferer can hear the noises. No one else can hear the noises. But that doesn't mean that there are no noises.
Sometimes, the noises are so loud that sufferers can't sleep - and this lack of sleep definitely makes the condition worse.
Curing Tinnitus
Can tinnitus be medically cured? Objective tinnitus usually has roots in a medically treatable disease, such as infection, tumors and growths and other conditions. The other type, called "subjective" tinnitus, usually has no identifiable cause, and no way to be cured. The other options for relief from these ringing noises are various treatments and remedies.
Many conditions that involve hearing problems are likely to show symptoms of ringing noises. Often, other hearing abnormalities and damage to the ear itself can cause these ringing sounds as the brain, in the absence of sound from the ears, can create the sounds that tinnitus sufferers hear.
Tips To Stop The Ringing
The key to effective treatment is to learn all you can about tinnitus. Even though loud noises often are the cause of ringing noises, there are many other things that can cause these annoying noises that you hear. - Lack of sleep
- Stress and anxiety
- Prescription drugs
- Over-the-counter drugs
- Allergies
- Sinus
While most tinnitus sufferers are able to live with the ringing, some are so affected that normal life becomes impossible. Sleep is interrupted (or non-existent), some become depressed, and many simply can't enjoy the benefits of a normal lifestyle.
Take action in finding relief from these abnormal noises that you hear. Always see your doctor first - to make sure there is no medically treatable condition responsible for your tinnitus. If your doctor can't help you, rest assured there are plenty of alternative treatments that can relive your symptoms.
