How To Cure Ringing Sound In The Ear?
I have had ringing in my left ear on and off for 6 months. I have seen 3 different doctors. The last one was a ent. He said I have cochlear hydrops. He put me on water pills and a low sodium diet. I still have the problem. What else could it be or what can I do for it?

Hello,
Vestibular hydrops if no response then it may need endolymphatic surgery. So don't worry it may subside completely. Use tablet amoxicillin and clavulinic acid 625 mg for five days. Avoid cool drinks and ice creams. If no improvement please consult with your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
