The Best Tinnitus Cures and Possible Causes

By Lauren Chloe Taylor

Millions of Americans require a tinnitus cure to stop the ringing in their ears. The sounds heard by sufferers can be described as beeping, chirping, swooshing, knocking, pulsing, and ringing. These sounds can usually only be heard by the sufferer, not externally. Some describe these noises as being very loud and other do not. It can be a consistent ringing or fade slowly and become intermittent. It can be very difficult to try to sleep at night as tinnitus worsens in quiet environments. Tinnitus can cause people many difficulties and be quite dehabilitating.

There are several things can may play a role in tinnitus. There are tiny nerve endings in the inner ear that can get damaged. Consistent exposure to loud noises is the main factor. Some other popular causes are ear and sinus infections.

Be aware of these other possible causes:

- Disorders of the jaw resulting in clicking or grating noises (Temporomandibular Joint Problems)

- Injury or trauma to the neck

- Stiffening of bones in the middle ear (Otosclerosis)
