I have it too - not sure what causes it - have had it for decades - sometimes I wonder if other people can hear it coming out of me ears!

@Pretzel I didn't know that they had headphones in the sixties

@Lostpoet Oh really. I may get it checked by a specialist doctor.

I did use Bluetooth headphones for quite a while. It might cause my fine hair to die in the ears.

@Arrow17 Any loud noise can do it.

@OldBrit I am so sorry. Thank you for sharing.
Tinnitus may be the result of your brain creating the sensation of high-pitched sound when you lose the ability to hear those frequencies. I'm not aware of any treatment for it other than cognitive therapy to help you ignore it. At night, I use a mechanical white noise generator. Some people prefer apps that can generate sounds like wind rushing through trees, ocean waves breaking, thunderstorms, etc.

@LeopoldBloom Thank you for the suggestion. I can go to swim on the beach everyday or go out more so I may use less mobile devices.
@Arrow17 This is what I use.

One thing you can do yourself to improve the condition is to buy a GOOD ear wax removal kit. Ear wax contributes to the condition.

Also, eat lots of fresh pineapple. It contains bromelain, an enzyme with anti-inflammatory properties, which may help to alleviate tinnitus.

@4meAndyou Thanks. I don't have earwax. I cleaned my ears everytime I had my shower.
4meAndyou · F
@Arrow17 So do I!!! But let me tell you, you can NOT get all the ear wax out of your deep ear canal unless you buy a kit.
Arrow17 · F
@4meAndyou i will ask doctor to do it for me
Lostpoet · M
There's actually a dietary pill that you can take I don't remember the name of it but it helped me.
Arrow17 · F
@carpediem I have to consult with the specialist doctor
carpediem · 61-69, M
@Arrow17 Good luck. I'd be interested in how it turns out for you.
Arrow17 · F
@carpediem Thank you.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
Several things can cause that. Being subjected to loud noises is probably the most common. But long term, high doses of aspirin can also cause tinitis. Perhaps your doctor can find the cause and recommend a treatment.i

@LadyBronte I don't listen to loud speaker everyday at home. I only listen to loud music 1 or twice a week when I go to sing a few song for 2 hours.
See a chiropractor

@aboveaverageaveragejoe To see them to break my bones.
@Arrow17 to get the pressure off your nerves that is cause your tinnitus.
