I have recently started having tinnitus, or ringing in my ears. Saw an ENT about it, and he said there wasn't much that could be done about it. I have started trying to watch my diet and take vitamins to help. I'm 50 and wonder if it's due to hormones or to a nerve condition.
Has anyone had any success with treatments for tinnitus? Thanks! |

It is commonly thought to be caused by damage to the otic nerve. anything in your life style that isn't strictly wholesome and health promoting could be suspect.

That's interesting. I have MS and have had Optic Neuritis a couple of times. I know my optic nerve is damaged and I do have tinnitus almost always. Sometimes it's worse than others but it's always there. I've been told there's nothing that can be done for it.
