Detailed Information About Hyperacusis Symptoms

Mon, 20 Dec 2010 05:38:00 -0800

Hyperacusis symptoms include hearing clicking or pressing of keyboard buttons and mouse, unbearable headache-causing sounds, and unexplainable noises and sounds. If you can associate yourself with these things, then chances are you have hyperacusis. Hyperacusis is a health condition characterized by oversensitivity to certain sound frequency ranges. A person suffering from severe hyperacusis finds it hard to tolerate daily sounds that only affect the sufferer and not others. Knowing what the hyperacusis symptoms are can be a big help to stopping this condition. If you want to know more about these symptoms, read on.

Hyperacusis is classified into two: cochlear and vestibular hyperacusis. Some of the cochlear hyperacusis symptoms are discomfort, annoyance, ear pain, and emotional reactions to certain very soft and high-pitched sounds. Some of the vestibular hyperacusis symptoms are loss of postural control, falling, and loss of balance. These are also known as the Tullio’s syndrome and audiogenic seizure disorder. In vestibular hyperacusis, some symptoms of cochlear hyperacusis may also be experienced along with severe vertigo and nausea. In some cases, vestibular hyperacusis can also affect the brain’s autonomic system and this leads to loss of consciousness, mental confusion, nausea, and extreme fatigue. Both vestibular hyperacusis and cochlear hyperacusis can also be characterized by headache.

Other Hyperacusis Symptoms

If you are suffering from hyperacusis, the following hyperacusis symptoms may also be experienced:

1. Tinnitus - more than 80% of those with hyperacusis also experience tinnitus symptoms
2. Headaches
3. Irritability and moodiness
4. Phonophobia or fear of social events - in many cases, people with extremely sensitive hearing try to avoid social events to avoid possibly uncomfortable and embarrassing situations. This symptom can have a big impact on the patient's personal and professional life.
5. Panic attacks and anxiety
6. Fatigue because of lack of sleep and rest
7. Nausea, dizziness, and loss of balance
8. Musicogenic Epilepsy - this is one type of epilepsy that can affect a person often exposed to music with frequency that he/she is sensitive to.
9. Tranquilizer Addiction - in many cases, hyperacusis patients may become dependent and worst, addicted to the use of tranquilizers due to continuous search for pain relief.

One thing you have to be aware of is that the hyperacusis symptoms are different from those of tinnitus. In fact, as mentioned above, tinnitus symptoms are just one of the symptoms of hyperacusis. If you start hearing some ringing sounds like the tinnitus sounds, make sure to consult with your doctor right away so that he/she can determine whether what you have is tinnitus or hyperacusis. Again, if you want to be treated right away, make sure to know the different hyperacusis symptoms as this is the very first step to becoming diagnosed and getting the treatment you need to get rid of the bad effects of hyperacusis. This condition can be devastating and debilitating, but when you recognize the symptoms early, something can be done to prevent it from worsening.

Learning how to recognize the symptoms will allow your condition to be diagnosed and treated earlier because without treatment, the condition can worsen and become devastating and debilitating. Unfortunately, this can have a significant impact on personal, social, and professional life. It is just right to know your symptoms as early as now to prevent your condition from worsening.

The Guidelines On Objective Tinnitus

Fri, 17 Dec 2010 05:56:00 -0800

Tinnitus is generally classified into either objective tinnitus or subjective tinnitus. The latter is more common. It is described as the tinnitus that cannot be heard by others, which means that only the sufferer can listen to the noise and sounds produced by tinnitus. Unlike the subjective type, objective tinnitus is very rare and is described as the type of tinnitus that other people can hear through the use of special device such as stethoscope that the doctor uses to diagnose the condition. Since it is often associated to serious medical conditions, this type of tinnitus is quite disturbing. Its prevalence accounts to only 3 percent of all tinnitus patients.

Objective tinnitus is characterized by rhythmic, thumping, clicking, or low humming sounds, which are synchronized with the heartbeat or breathing. This is the reason why it is also referred to as the pulsatile tinnitus. Relief against this kind of tinnitus is therefore not only targeted to getting rid of the pulsing noise but also to getting rid of the underlying medical condition.

Objective tinnitus is said to be caused by two major factors. The first cause is the alteration of blood flow in the veins or arteries surrounding the ear area which may result into ear thumping sounds. The second cause is the increased sensitivity to the internal noise caused by the flow of blood in the ears, making a person susceptible to hearing sounds produced by this kind of tinnitus. In rare cases, objective or pulsatile tinnitus can signal a grave or very serious medical condition such as aneurysm. Thus, proper diagnosis is necessary in order to identify the root cause of the noise heard by the patient.

The clinical investigation of this condition involves analyzing the patient’s medical history to check for prior cardiovascular conditions. The doctor may suggest that the patient undergoes CT scan, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), magnetic resonance scanning (MRI), angiography, and ultrasound. These tests and examinations show the images of blood flow and blood vessels thereby helping the doctor identify the main problem. The doctor may also do some blood tests to check if the patient has anemia.

The treatment methods for objective tinnitus depend on the root cause which must be treated immediately right after it has been identified. For instance, if hypertension is the main cause of tinnitus, the patient must take blood pressure lowering medications, change diet, and modify his/her lifestyle.

Patients suffering from pulsatile tinnitus should avoid the following:

•High sodium diet

•Fat-rich diet

•Alcohol

•Caffeine-laden beverages

•Stress

•smoking

High fat and cholesterol have always been associated with atherosclerosis which is believed to be one of the most common causes of pulsatile tinnitus. Thus, patients must stay away from them. Salt heightens the body tissues’ fluid retention which is one of the causes of high blood pressure. Caffeine stimulates and elevates the blood pressure and heart rate. Alcohol changes the body’s fluid balance, causing an inner ear fluid imbalance. Stress is a tinnitus triggering factor. Fatigue and anxiety must be managed well to prevent worsening of tinnitus. Always remember that objective tinnitus relief may also be achieved through relaxation, alternative remedies, and cognitive-behavioral therapy.

Useful Information About Objective Tinnitus

Fri, 17 Dec 2010 05:46:00 -0800

Tinnitus is classified into two types: subjective tinnitus and objective tinnitus. The former is a common type of tinnitus which is characterized by hearing ringing and hissing sounds unheard by other people. Objective tinnitus, on the other hand, is a rare type of tinnitus wherein the sounds produced can also be heard by others. For instance, the sounds can be heard by a doctor just by using a stethoscope. This is also more disturbing than the other type as it is accompanied by serious medical conditions like cardiovascular problems. This type of tinnitus occurs in 3% of all cases of tinnitus.

People with objective tinnitus frequently hear rhythmic clicking, low humming, or thumping sounds which are heard along with the breathing or heartbeat; hence its other name pulsatile tinnitus. This type of tinnitus may therefore be treated not only by treating the sounds or noise produced by tinnitus but also by treating the medical condition it indicates.

Objective tinnitus may be caused by two things. First, the sudden alteration in the blood circulation in the arteries or veins surrounding the ears can cause the production of ear thumping tinnitus sounds. Second, the heightened or increased sensitivity to the noise caused by the blood circulation in the ears can make a person hear tinnitus sounds. There are few cases however when this condition is accompanied by aneurysm or other fatal or life-threatening conditions making it imperative for the patient to receive proper diagnosis as there are root causes that must be pinned down.

The clinical investigation of this condition involves analyzing the patient’s medical history to check for prior cardiovascular conditions. The doctor may suggest that the patient undergoes CT scan, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), magnetic resonance scanning (MRI), angiography, and ultrasound. These tests and examinations show the images of blood flow and blood vessels thereby helping the doctor identify the main problem. The doctor may also do some blood tests to check if the patient has anemia.

Relief against objective tinnitus depends mainly on the primary condition, which upon identification must receive immediate treatment. For example, if the cause of the condition is hypertension, it must be treated by taking medication that can lower the blood pressure, diet change, and lifestyle modification.

Patients with this type of tinnitus should avoid indulging in the following:

• High sodium diet
• Diet rich in fat
• Alcohol
• Beverages with caffeine
• Stress
• smoking

Atherosclerosis is one of the main causes of tinnitus and this is unfortunately caused by diet rich in cholesterol and fats. Therefore, it is important for tinnitus patients to get rid of them. High blood pressure, one of the common causes of tinnitus, is caused by an increased intake of salt since it can alter the fluid retention in the body. Caffeine can cause increased heart rate and blood pressure. The fluid balance in the body and in the ears can be caused by too much alcohol consumption. Stress can trigger the symptoms of tinnitus to strike. Fatigue and anxiety management is important to keeping the tinnitus symptoms at bay. You should not forget that cognitive-behavioral therapy, alternative remedies, and relaxation can also help a person acquire relief against objective tinnitus.

Objective tinnitus is said to be caused by two major factors. The first cause is the alteration of blood flow in the veins or arteries surrounding the ear area which may result into ear thumping sounds. The second cause is the increased sensitivity to the internal noise caused by the flow of blood in the ears, making a person susceptible to hearing sounds produced by this kind of tinnitus. In rare cases, objective or pulsatile tinnitus can signal a grave or very serious medical condition such as aneurysm. Thus, proper diagnosis is necessary in order to identify the root cause of the noise heard by the patient.

Clinical diagnosis of this condition is done with the help of the patient’s medical history to check if the patient has suffered from any cardiovascular condition. Other medical tests and examinations such as magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), CT scan, magnetic resonance scanning (MRI), ultrasound, and angiography may also be done since the doctor needs to see images of blood circulation and blood vessels in the ears to correctly diagnose the condition that is causing tinnitus. Blood tests also help the doctor in diagnosing anemia.

Objective tinnitus can be treated when the primary condition has been identified. This primary condition must also be treated immediately after it has been determine. Hypertension for example can be treated with lifestyle modification, diet change, and intake of medicine/drug that can lower down the blood pressure.

Pulsatile tinnitus patients must stay away from the following:

• Sodium-rich diet
• High fat diet
• Alcohol
• Beverages with caffeine
• Stress
• smoking

Atherosclerosis is one of the main causes of tinnitus and this is unfortunately caused by diet rich in cholesterol and fats. Therefore, it is important for tinnitus patients to get rid of them. High blood pressure, one of the common causes of tinnitus, is caused by an increased intake of salt since it can alter the fluid retention in the body. Caffeine can cause increased heart rate and blood pressure. The fluid balance in the body and in the ears can be caused by too much alcohol consumption. Stress can trigger the symptoms of tinnitus to strike. Fatigue and anxiety management is important to keeping the tinnitus symptoms at bay. You should not forget that cognitive-behavioral therapy, alternative remedies, and relaxation can also help a person acquire relief against objective tinnitus.

Objective Tinnitus - A Quick Guide

Tinnitus is classified into two types: subjective tinnitus and objective tinnitus. The former is a common type of tinnitus which is characterized by hearing ringing and hissing sounds unheard by other people. Objective tinnitus, on the other hand, is a rare type of tinnitus wherein the sounds produced can also be heard by others. For instance, the sounds can be heard by a doctor just by using a stethoscope. This is also more disturbing than the other type as it is accompanied by serious medical conditions like cardiovascular problems. This type of tinnitus occurs in 3% of all cases of tinnitus.

People suffering from objective tinnitus describe their condition as hearing rhythmic, low humming, thumping, or clicking noise synchronized with their breathing or heartbeat. Thus, it is also called the pulsatile tinnitus. Therefore, a person can acquire relief not only when the tinnitus sounds are eradicated but also when the medical condition accompanying it is treated.

Objective tinnitus is said to be caused by two major factors. The first cause is the alteration of blood flow in the veins or arteries surrounding the ear area which may result into ear thumping sounds. The second cause is the increased sensitivity to the internal noise caused by the flow of blood in the ears, making a person susceptible to hearing sounds produced by this kind of tinnitus. In rare cases, objective or pulsatile tinnitus can signal a grave or very serious medical condition such as aneurysm. Thus, proper diagnosis is necessary in order to identify the root cause of the noise heard by the patient.

The clinical investigation of this condition involves analyzing the patient’s medical history to check for prior cardiovascular conditions. The doctor may suggest that the patient undergoes CT scan, magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), magnetic resonance scanning (MRI), angiography, and ultrasound. These tests and examinations show the images of blood flow and blood vessels thereby helping the doctor identify the main problem. The doctor may also do some blood tests to check if the patient has anemia.

Objective tinnitus can be treated when the primary condition has been identified. This primary condition must also be treated immediately after it has been determine. Hypertension for example can be treated with lifestyle modification, diet change, and intake of medicine/drug that can lower down the blood pressure.

Patients suffering from pulsatile tinnitus should avoid the following:

• Sodium-rich diet
• Diet rich in fat
• Alcohol
• Caffeine-rich beverages
• Stress
• smoking

High fat and cholesterol have always been associated with atherosclerosis which is believed to be one of the most common causes of pulsatile tinnitus. Thus, patients must stay away from them. Salt heightens the body tissues’ fluid retention which is one of the causes of high blood pressure. Caffeine stimulates and elevates the blood pressure and heart rate. Alcohol changes the body’s fluid balance, causing an inner ear fluid imbalance. Stress is a tinnitus triggering factor. Fatigue and anxiety must be managed well to prevent worsening of tinnitus. Always remember that objective tinnitus relief may also be achieved through relaxation, alternative remedies, and cognitive-behavioral therapy.

Objective Tinnitus - The Guidelines
Tinnitus is generally classified into either objective tinnitus or subjective tinnitus. The latter is more common. It is described as the tinnitus that cannot be heard by others, which means that only the sufferer can listen to the noise and sounds produced by tinnitus. Unlike the subjective type, objective tinnitus is very rare and is described as the type of tinnitus that other people can hear through the use of special device such as stethoscope that the doctor uses to diagnose the condition. Since it is often associated to serious medical conditions, this type of tinnitus is quite disturbing. Its prevalence accounts to only 3 percent of all tinnitus patients.
People with objective tinnitus frequently hear rhythmic clicking, low humming, or thumping sounds which are heard along with the breathing or heartbeat; hence its other name pulsatile tinnitus. This type of tinnitus may therefore be treated not only by treating the sounds or noise produced by tinnitus but also by treating the medical condition it indicates.
There are major causes of objective tinnitus. First, it can be caused by the sudden changes in the flow of blood in the arteries or veins in the ear. This often results to thumping sounds heard in the ear. Second, it can be caused by the heightened sensitivity to the sounds and noise from the blood flow in the ears. This makes a person prone to hearing tinnitus sounds. In some few cases, this type of tinnitus may indicate the presence of a fatal medical condition like aneurysm. Therefore, the patient’s condition must be diagnosed correctly to pin down the possible factors causing the tinnitus sounds heard by the sufferer.
This condition is usually clinically diagnosed through checking the medical history of the patient to see history of cardiovascular conditions. It may also be necessary for the patient to undergo tests such as ultrasound, angiography, magnetic resonance scanning (MRI), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and CT scan as these medical examinations and tests show blood flow and blood vessel images which can greatly help a doctor determine the root cause. Blood tests may also be done to see if the patient is suffering from anemia.
Relief against objective tinnitus depends mainly on the primary condition, which upon identification must receive immediate treatment. For example, if the cause of the condition is hypertension, it must be treated by taking medication that can lower the blood pressure, diet change, and lifestyle modification.
Pulsatile tinnitus patients must stay away from the following:
• Sodium-rich diet
• High fat diet
• Alcohol
• Caffeine-laden beverages
• Stress
• smoking
Atherosclerosis is one of the main causes of tinnitus and this is unfortunately caused by diet rich in cholesterol and fats. Therefore, it is important for tinnitus patients to get rid of them. High blood pressure, one of the common causes of tinnitus, is caused by an increased intake of salt since it can alter the fluid retention in the body. Caffeine can cause increased heart rate and blood pressure. The fluid balance in the body and in the ears can be caused by too much alcohol consumption. Stress can trigger the symptoms of tinnitus to strike. Fatigue and anxiety management is important to keeping the tinnitus symptoms at bay. You should not forget that cognitive-behavioral therapy, alternative remedies, and relaxation can also help a person acquire relief against objective tinnitus.

Hyperacusis Treatment - A Basics Guide

Thu, 16 Dec 2010 08:02:00 -0800

Medication/drugs, therapy, ear devices, and surgery are the usual ways to acquire hyperacusis treatment. This article will discuss about each of these methods in detail so continue reading this article.

Hyperacusis Treatment: Medication

In some occasions, intake of medications can help lessen the hyperacusis symptoms. Nonetheless, it’s not always advisable to take medications because of the unimpressive results and adverse side effects they are associated with. Anyhow, medications for anxiety and depression are often help patients deal with the psychological fallout of this condition. If you still opt to treat your hyperacusis with medications, you may choose from any of the following:

• Klonazepam or lorazepam in low doses

• SSRI family of antidepressants

• tricyclics, beta-blockers, verapamil, topiramate, and other anti-migraine drugs

• Anti-seizure drugs like oxcarbazapine

• Baclofen

Anti-anxiety and antidepressants are really great in reducing depression, anxiety, or obsessive thinking caused by hyperacusis. Anti-migraine drugs prevent migraine which again is caused by hyperacusis. Anti-seizure drugs are used to treat irritable neural pathways while Baclofen has been useful in the reduction of responses in the brainstem hyperacusis.

Hyperacusis Treatment through Ear Devices:

Another way to acquire hyperacusis treatment is through the use of ear devices like ear plugs and sound generators or maskers. Ear plugs are useful in such a way that the noise the patient is exposed to is decreased. However, there are theories saying that long-term use of these ear devices is not good since they can only make hyperacusis aggravated. Being exposed to noise has a habituating effect and this effect may be lessened by reducing the sounds or noise. On the other hand, some people still believe that it helps to use ear devices just like how the use of sunglasses helps in protecting the eyes from the glare of the sun. Electronic noise suppression devices are also said to be helpful although their effect is not as great as those other passive methods. Sound generators or maskers are used for brain and nervous system conditioning to make these systems tolerant to the sounds and noise. They function like hearing aids but require monthly readjustment for gradual desensitization.

Hyperacusis Treatment through Therapy:

Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT) is another form of hyperacusis treatment. This treatment is the combination of using sound generators and the psychotherapy approach. Because of its efficacy, it is one of the most popular approaches for treating hyperacusis these days. One important thing to keep in mind to make this work is to give this method commitment and time.

Hyperacusis treatment is also possible through psychological therapy given by a psychiatrist, psychologist, or any expert in this field. This approach teaches a patient how to ignore and tolerate the symptoms of hyperacusis rather than make a fuss of it. You may also take medications formulated to treat obsessive compulsive disorder.

Hyperacusis Treatment through Surgery:

Surgery is not a common form of hyperacusis treatment. Nevertheless, it is often advised to people with really useless hearing.

Currently, only four methods can be used for hyperacusis treatment. The number may not be that big but these are definitely a big help for those who really want to get rid of their hyperacusis symptoms.

Hearing loss occurs for many reasons but no matter what the reason or cause is, proper hearing loss treatment is necessary. Hearing loss can cause the afflicted person to be depressed, lonely, dependent, and unconfident. Treatment may not completely bring the person’s hearing back but it can make a lot of things easier for the afflicted person, particularly communication, social interaction, work and daily tasks. Here are the available hearing loss treatment options for you.

Reversible Hearing Loss Treatment:

Reversible hearing loss may be caused by different things and the treatment actually depends on these causes. Nevertheless, they are treated with success in most cases. Here are the causes and corresponding treatments of reversible hearing loss:

1. Ototoxic medicine consumption - your doctor may advise you to change or stop the medication

2. Ear infection – though it may clear up on its own, antibiotic may still be needed

3. Injury on the head or ears - your doctor may advise you to undergo surgery although this will also clear up on its own over time

4. Otosclerosis, Meniere’s disease, or acoustic neuroma - the problem may be solved by surgery or medicine consumption

5. Hardened, impacted earwax - the best way to solve this is through wax removal

Permanent Hearing Loss Treatment:

For age-related, noise-induced, and other permanent hearing loss, hearing loss treatment is possible through the use of hearing devices, which include:

1. Hearing aids – these are used to amplify or make sounds louder. These hearing aids cannot really restore hearing but they can help the afflicted person communicate and function more easily.

2. Assistive listening devices, alerting devices, and communication aids

Constant Hearing Loss Treatment:

General treatment and cure for reversible hearing loss is acquired after the treatment of the cause. However, if hearing loss stays the same even after the cause has already been treated, you need professional help from your doctor. Your doctor may suggest medicine consumption or surgery depending on the cause of your hearing loss. However, you need to keep an open mind that these treatments are not 100% capable of restoring your hearing and this is especially true for those diagnosed with permanent hearing loss, such as those age-related and noise-induced. In cases like this, you may need to use hearing aids continuously.

Here are some of the hearing aid devices available for constant hearing loss treatment:

1. Assistive listening devices - these hearing devices are used to make sounds louder through directing the sounds to the ears. A special type of device is used for every situation such as in one-on-one conversations, auditorium or classroom settings. Some of the most common assistive listening devices are telephone amplifiers, personal listening systems, and hearing aids directly attached to a microphone, television, radio, or stereo.

2. Alerting devices – because of the hearing problem, it can be quite hard or impossible or the person to hear a sound; thus, an alerting device is necessary. An alerting device uses a vibration, a light, or a loud sound to alert the sufferer.

3. Television-closed captioning – people with hearing loss problem find it hard to watch TV because they couldn’t easily hear the sounds from the TV. Thus, a television-closed captioning device which shows subtitles at the bottom of the screen is necessary.

4. Telecommunication device for the deaf (TDD) - this is one of the most common hearing loss treatment devices as it allows a person to use the telephone without having to listen to the person on the other line but rather to read the messages shown on the TDD keyboard.

Ear infection may also cause a ringing ear. One problem is found in this condition. Some of the medications for this might cause further unilateral tinnitus. And there are other drugs that might trigger this condition such as: anti-depressants, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, diuretic, ibuprofen, anti-malarial, oral contraceptives and chemotherapy.

A severe trauma in the head may bring about a problem in the components of the middle ear. In effect of these damaged nerves is that it may send wrong data to the brain. The external sounds such as the high decibel and the constant exposure to loud sounds will damage the hair cells, causing then a unilateral tinnitus. When normal, these hair cells on the cochlea transform sound waves into electrochemical currents relaying auditory information to the brain. But if the factors damage it, it will send falls signal to the brain, thus resulting to a tinnitus.

Stress may be related to unilateral tinnitus, though it hasn’t been proven to have caused it directly but can still trigger a case of tinnitus. Study has it that an excessive stress can cause a chemical imbalance in the body. This chemical imbalance can turn fluid levels in the inner ear to become unstable, thus leading to an ear ringing symptom. Diets should also be watched over. As for those people having tinnitus, it would be beneficial if the avoid a salty diet, high caffeine intake, too much alcohol, too much fat, and nicotine as these can aggravate a tinnitus case.

Tinnitus Retraining - A Quick Overview

Thu, 23 Sep 2010 07:50:00 -0700

One of the most common methods of tinnitus relief is the tinnitus retraining, a form of clinical tinnitus treatment that works on setting the patient’s mindset so that his or her attention will not be focused on the disturbing sounds caused by tinnitus. This treatment method is based on the principle that human perception forms the actions of the human body.

The principle behind the tinnitus retraining method is to eliminate the patient’s negative and adverse perceptions and thoughts about his or her condition by helping him or her identify the underlying problem that causes his or her tinnitus. This is done through the counseling sessions that teach the patient how to feel less affected by his condition.

Tinnitus retraining aims to reduce the sufferer’s fear of something that does not exist, make him or her become aware of the different recovery possibilities, and inform him or her available remedies that he or she can use in case of inevitable hearing loss.

The tinnitus retraining therapist achieves the above-mentioned objectives by asking the patient to undergo sound and counseling therapy which aims to divert his/her attention to other external sounds instead of focusing on the tinnitus sounds such as hissing, buzzing, or ringing sounds in the ears. Proponents of this tinnitus treatment method based this concept on the ability of the brain to learn, relearn, and ignore whatever the mind perceived as irrelevant.

Here’s the outline of the tinnitus retraining:

1. The First Session

The initial session of TRT involves gathering the patient’s historical facts and using these facts to trace any possible problem that has caused this condition. This session is also the time when the doctor determines how severe the hearing impairment of the patient is as well as how tolerant the patient can is to intrusive sounds. This is also the time when the doctor assesses the patient’s medical records to ensure that the condition is not caused by any underlying health conditions like hypertension, anemia, or Meniere’s disease due to the lodging of foreign objects in the ear canals of the patient. This session also includes the evaluation of tinnitus retraining as an appropriate treatment for the patient’s condition.

2. Fitting of the Tinnitus Masker

This session involves the patient choosing his/her preferred tinnitus masker that will be producing the white noise - one of the main parts of this treatment method for tinnitus. Tinnitus maskers are available in two forms - the desktop device form and the earphone-like device form. It is also in this session that the patient chooses the white noise he/she will be using during the therapy as this is based on what the patient prefers.

3. Post Treatment Analysis of TRT

The TRT post treatment analysis is the session when the doctor evaluates how this method has helped the patient divert his or her attention from the intrusive sounds produced by the condition to other external sounds with or without the help of a tinnitus masker. One of the main objectives of the tinnitus retraining is to eliminate the stress the patient feels. This is due to the fact that stress is one of the major contributing factors of tinnitus. In this session, the doctor determines any negativity in the tinnitus condition so that it can be replaced with other methods of treatment for this condition.

One of the most common methods of tinnitus relief is the tinnitus retraining, a form of clinical tinnitus treatment that works on setting the patient’s mindset so that his or her attention will not be focused on the disturbing sounds caused by tinnitus. This treatment method is based on the principle that human perception forms the actions of the human body.

The basic concept of tinnitus retraining is to get rid of the negative perceptions of the patient about tinnitus by helping him or her recognize the root causes of his or her condition. Through the counseling sessions required in the treatment, the patient will learn ways on how to feel more relaxed, calmer, and less stressed about his or her tinnitus condition.

Tinnitus retraining aims to reduce the sufferer’s fear of something that does not exist, make him or her become aware of the different recovery possibilities, and inform him or her available remedies that he or she can use in case of inevitable hearing loss.

The tinnitus retraining objectives are accomplished through the counseling and sound therapy sessions performed by a therapist. The counseling and sound therapy aims to redirect the patient’s attention to existing sounds rather than on non-existing sounds such as the ringing, buzzing, or hearing sounds caused by the tinnitus ear condition. TRT proponents believe in the concept that the brain is able to classify whatever the mind identifies as irrelevant.

Here’s how the tinnitus retraining is performed:

1. The First Session

The initial session of TRT involves gathering the patient’s historical facts and using these facts to trace any possible problem that has caused this condition. This session is also the time when the doctor determines how severe the hearing impairment of the patient is as well as how tolerant the patient can is to intrusive sounds.

This session also includes the evaluation of tinnitus retraining as an appropriate treatment for the patient’s condition.

2. Fitting of the Tinnitus Masker

During this session, the patient will choose his or her preferred type of device that will be used to produce his white noise, one of the most important parts of the TRT method. Patients usually have two choices for tinnitus masker. The first is a hearing aid or an earphone-like device and the second is the desktop device. Moreover, the patient will also be asked to choose his or her preferred white noise as this is mainly dependent on the preference of the patient.

3. Post Treatment Analysis of TRT

This final session is the evaluation of the progress on the patient’s ability to focus more on other external sounds rather than on the tinnitus produced noise with or without the white noise produced by a tinnitus masker. As mentioned earlier, tinnitus retraining aims to lessen the stress experienced by the patient, especially because stress triggers the symptoms of tinnitus to strike. During this session, the doctor will check if the treatment method has negative effect related to the condition and will replace this with other tinnitus treatment methods.

Tinnitus Retraining Therapy - Helpful Info

A new habituation therapy has been discovered for those with tinnitus or ringing ears. Tinnitus Retraining Therapy is the treatment that is relatively new. Results showed 80 percent success rate in a recent trial done. It brings about the idea that the brain can pay no attention to the noise that a person can hear of everyday. Patience must be one qualification of the patient as this treatment may take him 18 months or so.

Patients must be counseled well before undergoing the treatment, explaining to them how joining the tinnitus retraining treatment and sound enrichment could stop the negative reaction of ringing ears, gradually ending their awareness of it. To provide a background noise level, a noise generator would be used in the Tinnitus Retraining Therapy. The aim of this therapy is to give hope to the people with ringing ears or Tinnitus.

This function in the brain is called the Auditory Habituation, which is used in the Tinnitus Retraining Therapy.

So what Tinnitus Retraining Therapy does is that it retrains the brain in such a way that the brain won’t give a negative reaction to the noise or ringing ears or tinnitus, thus allowing auditory habituation. The therapy does this by having the person listen to a regular digitally created full audio spectrum while noise, MP3, or CD. The level of the ear noise must be the above the level of the sound. In that way, it makes the ear noise imperceptible, since the sound would cause the plasticity of the brain to increase. Therefore, it couldn’t make an emotional response, resulting in an auditory habituation.

The patient undergoing the treatment must be cooperative in the procedure. He must help himself in finishing the course. There are things that the patient must be prepared of before submitting to the procedure. Different brain functions must be understood. Patient must have faith in the procedure, as well as patience. These two can contribute to the result of getting into Tinnitus Retraining Therapy since it would take at least 18 months for the entire course. If patient does not have the patience, it might wear him off in the middle of the treatment. And a positive outlook will keep the patient aspire that his tinnitus problem can be overcome.

Tinnitus Headache - Your Quick Guide

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 07:19:00 -0700

There are new discoveries of how tinnitus headache developed. This will be discussed along the article as the secondary factors. But let’s go over to the primary factors from which headache might develop. First and most common is the stress. Stress affects the temporal bone structure of the skull. Relaxing and getting deep breath will relieve a person from a stress. Drinking plenty of water is necessary for those who are under stress. As medications could give relief, some medicines may have adverse side effects. Insomnia, the next factor could be easily treated with right quantity of sleep (7 hours/day).

Subarachnoid hemorrhage could be another factor of having tinnitus headache. This is a serious condition and considered to be life threatening. This happens when there is bleeding in the subarachnoid space in the brain. This could happen spontaneously, or could be coming from a cerebral aneurysm that ruptured, or from a serious head injury. This is a rare case having the ratio of just 1 out of 15,000 Americans. The lumber puncture is said to cause a tinnitus headache too. This is a collection of cerebrospinal fluid from the sac of the lumber. But this only occurs after 12 hours from which the process is completed.

Knowing already the primary factors, let us proceed to the secondary factors which are a new discovery. A new study has pointed that tinnitus headache comes from a group of condition called Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD). And this TMD is caused by another factor called the Temporomandibular Join Disorder (TMJ). It is known to bring out some ear problem since the jaw joint is just near the ear. Since the muscle and tendril are directly connected with the ear, nerve impulses are also transmitted from those that are connected to the jaw muscles. And even with a slight mistake in the interpretation of signals from each other may be altered.

A continuous study of tinnitus and its relation to headache is still in progress. But one consideration of the causes of tinnitus headache would be the taking in of ototoxic medications. Antibiotics including Aminoglycosides, Vancomycin, and Erythromycin may cause a tinnitus headache. The chemotherapy agents and quinine may cause tinnitus and an uncomfortable temporal headache most especially to the elderly. The toxicity in these drugs may irritate the temporal part in the skull giving pain and discomfort in that area.

This temporal headache could come from the temporal bone which is located just above the ear in the skull. This is the organ responsible for hearing. To manage tinnitus headache, finding out the root cause would lead the person to the right treatment. There are many factors that could result to tinnitus headache. Primary and secondary factors will be discussed further as you read on.

The primary factors involved in a Tinnitus headache are stress, continued sleeplessness or insomnia, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and lumber puncture. There are also new discoveries of which tinnitus headaches are associated to. But let us discuss the primary factors starting with stress. Stress sprouts from the temporal bone structure of the skull. To address the stress problem, relaxing and taking deep breath and drinking plenty of water will relieve a person from stress. And even when medications may be required some may have unhealthy side effects. Insomnia, the next factor can be reversed just by doing the opposite that is by sleeping 7 hours a day.

Another factor for having tinnitus headache would be a subarachnoid hemorrhage. This a fatal condition if it won’t be addressed to as early as possible. In this condition, there is a bleeding in the subarachnoid space in the brain. It may happen spontaneously or may be caused by a ruptured cerebral aneurysm out of a serious head injury. This is a rare case though as the ratio just showed a result of 1 out of 15,000 Americans. A collection of cerebrospinal fluid from the sac of the lumber, called as the lumber puncture could cause tinnitus headache too. This can only occur after 12 hours from the completed procedure.

Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) is a new study that tinnitus headache may have aroused from this condition. But this alone is the problem but this arises from another factor called Temporomandibular Join Disorder (TMJ). Some mechanisms in the jaw joint, which is located near the ear, may bring out an ear symptom. The muscles and tendrils get their nerve impulses from those that are joined to the jaw muscles, and sometimes, a bit of mistake in the analysis of the signals may cause alteration.

A progressive study of tinnitus in relation to a temporal headache is still on going. But another consideration of how a tinnitus headache may arise is from an ototoxic medication like the antibiotics, including Aminoglycosides, Vancomycin, and Erythromycin. The chemotherapy agents and quinine is also considered to be contributors to tinnitus headache, especially for the older people. Pain and discomfort may arise in the temporal structure in the skull due to the toxicity which is present in these drugs.

But this can only be effective when worn. A trained audiologist is the one best to fit the masking device. Unwillingness and expensiveness of the technology is the hindrance of a patient to use the technology.

Hypnosis, cognitive therapy and biofeedback are behavioral and combined therapies that can help individuals with tinnitus. But it lacks definitive studies. A neurophysiolgic approach called Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT) is another way of how to stop tinnitus. This uses a combination of low-level sound with cognitive therapy. Still lacking with definitive outcome studies, specialized centers reported 75 % of success rate in catering severe tinnitus treatment. There have also been trials made to a variety of pharmacologic and complementary strategies including: anti-depressants, neuromodulators, dietary supplements, herbal medications, homeopathy, naturopathy, aromatherapy, craniosacral therapy, chiropractic manipulator, low-doe laser, ultra quiet ultrasonic therapy and low- dose electrical stimulation.
