In this era of advanced technology, medical sciences have succeeded in finding out the cure of almost every disorder and disease. Just like other disorders, tinnitus can also get cured if treated properly and taken seriously. There are many treatments available to this disorder, but for every treatment, it is vital that patient himself is willing to cooperate with the doctors so that they can carry on easily with the treatment process.
Before starting the treatment of tinnitus, the doctor first analyzes the condition in which tinnitus has occurred. If it is caused because of health conditions then the doctor’s focus will be on the reduction of noise. The treatment methods in this dimension may include:
Many doctors are in opinion that tinnitus cannot be treated with drugs, yet there are some drugs available that can be somehow used for the cure of this disorder. These drugs may not completely eliminate tinnitus; rather they help to reduce the complications of the disorder. Some of the possible drugs include niravam, xanax and tricyclic antidepressants. Tricyclic antidepressants work successfully in the severe cases of tinnitus whereas niravam and xanax have some side effects as well. Usage of these drugs can cause dizziness and nausea. It may become addictive and form a habit in the patient.
Many medical centers have now started giving services of counseling and support groups for the treatment of tinnitus. Patients can freely ask for a referral from their doctor. Some medical specialists also refer surgeries if the tinnitus is becoming serious and causing other problems such as cyst, tumor and deposit of excessive calcium on the ear bone. A hearing test, scientifically known as Audiogram is also carried out on the examination stage of the disorder. If the doctor feels that a structural problem in the ear is causing tinnitus then he might refer his patient to go for MRI or CT scans, and on the basis of the results of these tests, the treatment is then started accordingly.
