FitnessDoctor:


Sorry dear, I am not on WhatsApp, it is an addiction that I am trying to break since early 2017, so I can't go back.

First of all, what caused your tinnitus? It's important that I know

As for your question

Abstaining from earpiece wouldn't stop the sound per say, but it will reduce your chances of going deaf.

Stop using earpiece on both ears for up to 1 month, always note or write down the changes you notice.

For example, does it ring or beat when you are in very quiet places? This is very important to note

Secondly, does it make it hard for you to fall asleep at night or to think and concentrate, that is another important thing to note if it does then you need to visit your doctor immediately.

Sleep and stress can be a problem and make the hissing worse if you don't sleep well, then you need to start sleeping well and try not to get stressed up, stress will make the hissing much worse. You can find out lots on my blog about controlling stress.

Always stay away from loud places and noises. Listen to music with your phone speaker and not with earpiece or headphones.

All these will make the hissing sound go away but that doesn't mean it will be cured, but you can live your life as if it is not there.

If you still have this problem after a month then you can visit your doctor.

MRNICEGUYy:

pls say something sir!
Though before when the sound was worst, like i told u before that i was hearing the sound of a generator in my ear. Then i couldnt sleep, bt after using ear drop drop the sound reduced and it changed to hissing.
Pls i want know if my case is tinnitus or symtoms of tinnitus. I also want to know if the hissing sound with stop with time.

FitnessDoctor:


Tinnitus is the perception of noise or ringing in the ear when there is no external sound present, it could also be a ringing, humming, buzzing, roaring, clicking or hissing sound. If you are hearing any sound like you said a generator sound or a hissing sound and there is nothing around you that is making that sound (I mean if there is no generator that is on, or there is no one hissing) then you have tinnitus.

I advice you go to your doctor since you have already started treatment and noticed changes (the eardrop). Your doctor will make a proper diagnosis and tell you the next steps to take.

You didn't tell me the cause of your tinnitus, if it was because you were playing music so loud or because you were in a noisy place or because of an ear disease.

Don't worry, just take to your doctor and lay all the necessary details and he will be able to help you in case you have severe tinnitus which is a little worse

Tinnitus can't be cured, but you can live your life as if it was never there (I mean you can live your life without ever hearing that hissing sound in your ear).

MRNICEGUYy:
Thanks.. But du u mean my brain will get use to the sound and I will not feel like am hearing it?? ??

FitnessDoctor:


No, from my own experience, the hissing sound will go away completely, but will come back whenever you feel stressed or possibly sick. That is what I mean by you will be able to live as if it was never there.

MRNICEGUYy:
thanks fitness doc but how long did it take yours to go away? Mine is in the second week and its still ringing/sizzling.

FitnessDoctor:


I was able to get rid of the sound in a week because I knew what caused it. Stress and listening to music at very high volumes with my earpiece. Immediately I changed those two things I was able to have peace. That is why I asked you what caused yours.

Also do you hear the sound normally or only when you are in quiet places?

MRNICEGUYy:
Okay thank you very much for your time and advise, I really do appreciate!

If you are also having partial hearing in that particular ear, then it's likely an infection or better still go to ENT (Ear, Nose, Throat) clinic to check and be sure. I can recommend if you are in Lagos

iameedris:


Bro, I also have similar experience, pls where is the ENT clinic located in Lagos, Thanks

Enkay12:
At Orioke, Ogudu just by the bridge that leads to ogudu from Orioke . The name is Yinka Ade Clinic Ear Nose Throat. It may require money but he is good,he will use a machine to see through then tell you the issue.
