Conditions Commonly Associated with Tinnitus
It is important to have a medical doctor evaluate your tinnitus prior to starting treatment to rule out the possibility of a more serious underlying condition. Tinnitus can be a symptom of medical conditions, such as Meniere’s Disease and acoustic neuroma, which require medical intervention.
Even in the absence of a more serious underlying condition, chronic tinnitus can be very stressful, debilitating and disruptive to everyday life.
Chronic tinnitus can result in:
- Inability to relax
- Lack of concentration
- Sensitivity to loud sounds/hyperacusis
- Anxiety and depression
- Negative impact on work, family and social life
- Loss of sleep
Because many people with tinnitus have irregular sleep patterns, they may also experience sleep deprivation and its associated symptoms, such as:
- Aching muscles
- Depression
- Diabetes – Type 2
- Decreased concentration/ADHD-like symptoms
- Headaches
- Impatience
- Irritability
- Weight gain/obesity
Historically, there have been no treatments proven effective in treating the root causes of tinnitus — a situation which can further amplify feelings of depression and anxiety.
But now there’s hope. Clinical trials have proven the Neuromonics Tinnitus Treatment can significantly reduce tinnitus awareness and disturbance for up to 90% of suitable patients affected by tinnitus.
