How Long Will Tinnitus Last? Is It Curable?

Having tinnitus is no joke! When you first discovered that you were suffering from this condition, you probably did all you could to research and talk with the doctors to see what you can do. What usually happens is either they prescribe you some drugs that should help your ear be less sensitive to noise or send you to some audio noise training to train your brain to block the sounds out. Or as a last resort, surgery is also offered.

What is usually not mentioned is natural remedies that you can try. These do require some lifestyle changes as the majority of tinnitus cases are the result of an underlying root cause. Once you target and resolve that cause, usually the tinnitus will go away on its own. So sometimes, tinnitus acts as an alarm letting you know that something is not right with your body.

How long will tinnitus last?

Depending on the cause of the tinnitus, it can last anywhere from a few weeks to years. Some people have had to learn how to cope with it because nothing they do seems to help. That is a sad state of affairs and I hope you are not there! Or at least that your tinnitus is not as bad as some people's are where the noise is so high pitched and shrilled that they can't sleep or concentrate.

Sometimes tinnitus can be caused by an ear infection. Usually in this instance, the tinnitus should silence itself within a month's time.

If the underlying cause is stress or anxiety, then the tinnitus will be present as long as you are undergoing high stress and anxiety. And in these trying economic circumstances, more and more people are experiencing the noises of tinnitus.

Is it curable?

Tinnitus itself is not curable simply because it is a symptom of other causes. But it can be fixed if you get to the bottom of what is causing your tinnitus. The cause is different for each person, which is probably why doctors cannot say the one thing that causes tinnitus as well as prescribing one treatment that will work for everybody as it just doesn't work that way.

What can you do?

Even though there is no one cure for everybody, there are some natural home remedies you can try. But please do consult your doctor to make sure nothing will interact adversely with any medicines you are taking.

Check out the list of the top 5 natural tinnitus remedies guides out there.

this curse started with me from last two months , i am 33, i suppose due to heavy compact discotheque i have been visting , plus little alochol , took away my cochlear cells , i guess . The demon burns my ears with acid eat night .

--------------

Now i went into depression .

But : i will never give up .

Now i am having a anti depressant medicine allopathy , homepathy sleeping with mild dose and a ear drop prescribed by homepathy .

Having sex or playing increase the tinnitus demon cry inside .

SO what's next .

--------------------------------

Friends ,wht i did is Shunya mudra ,anulom vilom and kapalbhati ,when i did those , the sound reduced but when i got over with those , for the day , it increased with water shower sound etc an all .

but i would definitely say , shunya mudra +homeopathy is improving the tinnitus condition . because earlier it was too many noises , now its one or two at a time ,and my head was always heavy and ear full of pressure , now its not there . though i wake up , 2 to 3 times at night due to sounds that become more due to silence outside. i have accepted that i am stuck by a curse or demon and i can only get rid of it when my body or my mind thinks , its not a demon or a curse, its justa part of me .I have started listening to it , its varieties , and when it goes high . it specifically goes hi after any shrilling horne by a passing vehicle or after food intake or exertion , that is blood flow or hyperactivity increases .

so to low it , i avoid talking much and listening more .

i avoid stress .

i avoid alcohol but i cannot leave drinking tea , slowly i will leave that as well .

I do shunya mudra ,and i take homeopathy . i do various movement experiments and try to record when it increases , doctors dont have much answer because its basically electricty inside our body cells problem that is generated due to some other coz .

The cells get depolarized because of some underlying coz and radiate electricity which are recognized as sound by our brain , it seems super power is controlling it . just follow what our ancient munis have done ,

all i can say shunya mudra+homeopathy , have patience and have acceptance. tinnitus will go away
