Tinnitus: Doctors
built 786 days ago
To learn more about what is causing your tinnitus, your doctor may refer you to an otolaryngologist (oh-toe-lair-in-GAH-luh-jist), an ear, nose, and throat doctor. He or she will examine your ears and your hearing to try to find out why you have tinnitus. Another hearing professional, an audiologist (aw-dee-AH-luh-jist), can measure your hearing. If you need a hearing aid, an audiologist can fit you with one that meets your needs.

If you are at a point where you feel you cannot suffer one more day with Tinnitus then please tell someone. Very often Tinnitus sufferers feel alone because they think no one can understand what they're going through. Tinnitus is invisible and therefore many tinnitus patients feel completely alone. It is important that you contact a loved one, a doctor, a psychiatrist or anyone that you can talk to and share what you're going through.

Sometimes, counseling may help you learn to live with tinnitus. Your doctor may recommend biofeedback training. This method helps you learn to control body functions by monitoring specific responses (such as tightness of a muscle group) and altering this response through relaxation.
