Suggest Treatment For Tinnitus And Roaring Noise In Right Ear

I have tinnitus on my right ear, and have read that our ears need certain minerals to make the middle ear that has cell hairs work, as mine seems to be damaged. I am taking zink, ginko biloba, magnesium and chromium, do you think I m doing the right thing? I had a terrible noise , a roaring noise that woke me up early three days ago, and when I read about this formula I then bought these pills and am taking them as directed and the noise has diminished some. I also have a lot of prayers being said for me as well as praying myself, as I do believe in God s healing. Thanks for your answer.Maria

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . Tinnitus is very common problem . It can occur due to number of reasons . So we can not pin point particular reason without proper diagnosis .

Tinnitus can occur due to temporomandibular problem (TMJ) , sinusitis , middle ear infection , any growth in meddle ear , wisdom tooth problrm , stress and due some deficienty as you mention in query.

No doubt ginko biloba is known to be effective in case of tinnitus and you should continue it . But other minerals you are taking should be continue only after expert advice.

I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist (ear,nose,throat) for sinusitis and ear problem , dentist for wisdom tooth and TMJ problem for proper diagnosis and treatment accordingly .

For now now try to keep your dtress level low , do yoga and meditation (very effective for tinnitus ) and take physical therapy like warm compresses to ear.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
