Tinnitus Causes

Tinnitus is not a disease or a disorder. The outer ear, middle ear, inner ear and /or he head are subjected to whistling or ringing sensation that does not really exist. Causes for tinnitus include:

  • Hypertension
  • Ostosclerosis (degeneration of ear bones)
  • Tumor in the middle ear
  • Pressure in the cerebrospinal fluid of the brain
  • Over exposure to loud banging noise or music for a prolonged period
  • Ageing leads to an overall degeneration of organs
  • Overuse of certain drugs like aspirin.
  • Accumulation of ear wax
  • Infection of the ear
  • Disease in the eardrum or bones
  • Brian tumor
  • Aneurysm

Themicroscopic nerve endings in the inner ear are damaged leading to unusual noises. This is the main reason for tinnitus in older adults. In a few cases, the condition might turn out to be dangerous making the person lose his hearing ability. Homeopathy and other natural drugs are the most sought after options by many people. Others can successfully adapt themselves to the sound and completely ignore the ringing sensation. This will help tremendously and is often of the best ways to get rid of the problem.

Failing to ignore the sound might lead to interferences in daily activities. The sound might also interfere with the person’s ability to sleep at night. Insomnia can lead to decreased brain functioning leading to numerous behavioral problems. Hallucinations, dizziness and delusion have often been reported in such cases. These noises are believed to be the movement of different fluids within our body that often goes unnoticed because of the louder external noises in our environment.
