a tinnitus support forum would be a better place to ask mate. guaranteed tinnitus sufferers there as opposed to random advice. they'd know better.

that being said, i doubt there is much you can do that your doctor hasnt already recommended. its just something that happens to you. safe for medically valid options what option could there possibly be? kinda like aksing for advice on living with being short... but at least then you can recommend a stool

It's something you just have to live with

Figure out what caused it and stop doing it. For me, it was loud headphone music. My tinnitus has nearly faded away.

Same. At first I stopped having the volume so high but after a recent incident I decided to stop using headphones all together

Apparently listening to white noise can help.

thats basically what living with tinnitus is like.

to the OP, theres not a lot you can do about it, but eventually your brain will just tune it out, you wont hear it after a while unless you actively think about it.

source: ive had labyrinthitus in both ears and it damaged my hearing.

Not to hijack the thread but I only recently found out that this is supposed to be an illness. I've had a soft ringing in my ears for as long as I can remember when I'm in a quiet place. It doesn't bother me 99% of the time, just when I remember about it and focus on it.

Is this bad? I honestly thought everyone had ringing in their ears up until now, that's not the case? And if there's nothing I can do should I keep ignoring it or should I visit a doctor?
