There is no universal cure for tinnitus, but there are treatments that make it less of a distraction. Because tinnitus is a side effect of an underlying condition, identifying the problem<\/a> may lead to a medical or surgical solution. The cure rates for pulsatile tinnitus are quite high once the problem has been identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Unfortunately, in many cases the exact cause of tinnitus can\u2019t be identified, or treatment is not possible. However, symptoms can often be managed successfully through a number of different strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sounds are used to cover up, or mask, the tinnitus. This distracts your brain and helps you tune out the ringing in your ears. Electronic devices that produce white noise, air conditioners, fans, soft music, etc. can all be employed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a range of sound therapy options you can employ including audio files, sleep noise generators, tinnitus-specific ear buds and more. These acoustic therapy methods are designed to habituate a tinnitus sufferer to their symptoms by reducing the contrast between the tonal sounds they hear and their environment. This allows the brain to blend and mask tinnitus sounds with natural and therapy added environmental noises.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAcoustic Therapy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
