Tinnitus is a symptom for which a cure is hard to set as the goal. It is right to say so frankly.

Rather than getting rid of the sound, reducing the reaction to the sound so that daily life is not disturbed is the realistic goal. In fact, even when the tinnitus remains, once it stops bothering you the quality of life changes greatly.

Korean medicine treatment approaches it by regulating neck and jaw tension, sleep and stress. Tinnitus has the characteristic of growing when you are tired or under heavy stress, which is why this part has meaning.

If tinnitus arose suddenly in one ear along with a drop in hearing, it may be sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and ENT care within a few days matters more than anything. The timing of treatment governs the outcome.
