Details (prREACH) Around 50 million Americans between 60 and 75 are experiencing a hearing ailment known as
tinnitus. The principal sign of ringing in the ears, which affects a great deal more men than women, is hearing
tones which no one else can hear. Tinnitus in many instances indicates a problem manifesting within the four
components of the auditory system – the outer ear, the middle ear, the inner ear, and the brain – and
therefore is more of a manifestation of other conditions than a disease alone. Although it is not a type of
hearing loss per se, it can be connected to other forms of either conductive or sensorineural hearing loss.
Yet since tinnitus causes visitors to hear the buzzing or ringing sound continuously, this tends to have the
effect of reducing a person’s absolute threshold of hearing, making it much harder to hear low-level sounds
normally.
Considering that tinnitus is such a prevalent problem in the U.S., the audiologists at Physician Hearing
Centers are constantly researching new treatment procedures. Because many of these therapies are
relatively new, people who’ve endured tinnitus for many years are often unaware that new therapies are
available to them. Physician Hearing Centers prides itself on being able to offer the most up-to-date tinnitus

available to them. Physician Hearing Centers prides itself on being able to offer the most up-to-date tinnitus
treatments in Cleveland OH. Aside from maintaining a summary of currently available tinnitus therapies on
their website, the Physician Hearing Centers team members often write about new developments on the
company blog. Readers interested in additional information on the therapies listed here are encouraged to
visit the website at http://physicianhearingcenters.com or contact Physician Hearing Centers for an
appointment.
Hearing aids. Individuals with tinnitus typically also have some level of hearing loss. Hearing aids can provide
the dual benefit of enhancing hearing ability while also covering the sounds of tinnitus. Tinnitus patients
making use of hearing aids commonly report partial or complete alleviation of tinnitus symptoms.
Relaxation and Counseling. Learning how to relax is extremely helpful if the ringing in your ears frustrates
you. Stress tends to make tinnitus seem even worse. Counseling may be appropriate when tinnitus causes
anxiety, depression or other psychological problems.
Maskers. Hiding (or masking) the sounds of tinnitus may be achieved through an electronic tinnitus masker.
Many patients report good results with tinnitus maskers although they do not improve hearing the way a
hearing aid does.
Medication. Some tinnitus patients develop anxiety and other strong emotional reactions to their tinnitus.
Certain drug treatments may offer relief from these emotional reactions and give some relief from the ringing
in the ears.
