Anyone who suffers from tinnitus knows how awful the buzzing in the ears is.
All you want to do is stop the ringing.
I used to get it so bad that it would go on for a long-time and when you get a severe attack it can even stop you hearing what people are saying to you.
It can happen at any time and is distressing and annoying when you get ringing in your ears.
The fact is many people once they get it are resigned to living with it.
Even though it can be treated.
Doctors understand the main cause of tinnitus is loud noise, but they seem unable to cure it.
They keep prescribing medicines that do not work.
One after the other you try them and the only thing you get out of it is a big bill.
That is what happened to me.
Once you get it you will find it comes back again and again.
If you have been exposed to loud noise for prolonged periods at any time then you are likely to suffer from this in life.
Listening to loud music, working plant machinery or working in a factory can all induce attacks, unless you protect your ears.
If you are in any environment where you are exposed to high levels of noise it is a good idea to use earplugs.
It might not just prevent tinnitus but save your hearing too.
There are hundreds of millions of people worldwide with this condition and many just suffer in silence.
They just wait for the next attack.
From experience once it starts it will only get worse, with episodes occurring with increasing frequency, then lapsing for a while only to come back worse than before.
This is why it is important to take action to stop the buzzing in your ears.
