Tinnitus Treatment That’s Tailored to You

Have you noticed an occasional or persistent ringing or buzzing sound that only you seem to hear? That’s tinnitus, a common medical condition that can affect one or both of the ears. If you’re dealing with it, you’re far from alone—approximately 50 million Americans suffer from some kind of tinnitus, according to the American Tinnitus Association. But while this condition can be annoying at best and debilitating at worst, it is possible to manage tinnitus and alleviate symptoms. Western Montana residents trust the experts at Vibrant Hearing for tinnitus treatment plans personalized to meet their unique needs.Carpenter using a table saw to cut wood

Causes of Tinnitus

Though tinnitus is often associated with hearing damage from extensive exposure to loud noises, there are actually many factors that can trigger the constant noise in your ears. These include:

  • Head injuries
  • Eardrum blockage
  • Jaw joint disorders
  • Stress
  • Your diet
  • Hearing loss
  • Medications

There are many types of tinnitus. Subjective tinnitus, which is the best-known type, affects only the individual. Objective tinnitus, which has many of the same symptoms, is actually audible to someone using a stethoscope or microphone. Subcategories include somatic tinnitus—which is directly linked to physical movement and may go away in time if it was caused by an injury—and pulsatile tinnitus, which pulses in sync with your heartbeat and is caused by the following conditions:

  • Blood vessel disorder
  • High blood pressure
  • Cholesterol buildup in the circulatory system
  • Head or neck tumors
  • Turbulent blood flow
  • Capillary malformation around the ear

Unfortunately, no one has yet found out how to cure tinnitus. But there are many ways for the professionals at Vibrant Hearing to help you learn to block out the noise with a tinnitus treatment plan.
