If you're suffering from ringing ears, you're surely anxious for a permanent cure.
But curing your tinnitus usually requires far more than a single trip to the doctor for some meds.
So what can you do to silence the buzzing, clicking, ringing in ears that's driving you mad while you search for a permanent solution? Here are two things you can do right now to try to lessen the noise while you search for a more permanent solution.
One thing you can do is change the noise level in your environment.
The noises of the world around you often make the noises in your head louder.
So anything you can do to avoid loud noises in your day to day life can help.
This can include working in a quieter environment, using ear plugs to cut down on outside noise, or getting a while noise generator to help drown out the sounds of the rest of the world.
Another thing you can do is cut back on your use of caffeine and nicotine.
That's right.
Both coffee (and other caffeinated drinks) and nicotine (from cigarettes, cigars, etc.
) are known to worsen tinnitus problems in many people.
Cutting down on these or eliminating them altogether could make a major reduction in the ringing in ears that's driving your crazy.
I want to reiterate that none of what we just discussed is likely to be a complete cure for your tinnitus.
That said, taking any or all of the steps in this article could make a noticeable difference in the quality of your life as you search for a complete tinnitus cure.
