Been having it all my life but really got louder about 5 years ago. No cure. You learn to ignore it.

I’ve had it for years. Never found anything that helps. If you get vertigo or full ear feeling, could be Ménière’s disease. That can be helped some with diet. Salt intake can be big trigger. Good luck. If you find something that helps, share it!

I hear mine while wearing double ear protection on the riding lawn mower. I have learned to ignore or embrace it as just a part of life.

Probably too much loud music, shooting w/o protection, cutting grass etc… w/o hearing protection. I use plugs and over the ear protection for everything now.

There are some online audio tracts that claim to help. Sounds like weird computer noises but I’ve never found them to help.

I’ve had it for 20+ years. I failed my last hearing test a couple years ago. I just learn to live with it. I use a noise maker at night to help me sleep. I find if I drink too much, the next morning the ringing is a bit louder than normal. That’s all I got.

Thanks! Sounds like the noise machine we had for the kids.

Yeah I can't stand it. Been taking lipo flavonoids for years now and I don't think it does much. High frequency hearing loss in my left ear from sitting next to speakers at heavy metal concerts in my youth and shooting guns. The time it really came on though was when my left ear had was buildup and it was impacted. Got it removed but the ringing stayed.

If you're a veteran you can get 10% disability. You have to apply and it takes awhile.

There was a gal on YouTube that had a yoga stretch combined with rolling around on the ground a certain way that was supposed to move fluid in your head around to make it less bad. Can’t find the specific one to post at the moment

Watch your salt intake. One trip to Canes triggers my tinnitus.

For me it's refined sugar. I can't consume it at all without hours of ear ringing.

Got this year in March, along with constantly needing to clear my ears and sinus issues and migraines. Going to a long Covid Speicalist this week as it could be related. Covid twice and no clot shot. At first i was going crazy, literally. Then got used to it. It sucks but noting you can do but deal with it unfortunately. Good luck.
