Stress is another known cause of tinnitus and the Tinnitus Terminator anxiety that follows the onset of a tinnitus attack can add to stress levels creating more discomfort and worsening the overall well being of the victim. Stress management is a major player in any good tinnitus relief program so it's good to know there are proven ways of dealing effectively with stress.In a little more detail - the reason why stress levels can affect tinnitus noise is that stress affects blood pressure, which in turn affects tinnitus noise levels. There are many known cases where tinnitus sufferers have been treated for high blood pressure and enjoy the side effect of a reduction in their tinnitus noises. I suppose you could call that a kind of tinnitus relief by proxy. It happened to me - imagine waking one morning with less noise than the day before. A wonderful feeling.
It is also important to realize that some prescribed medications are known to be contributors to tinnitus. Analgesics, anti inflammatory drugs and antibiotics should be carefully monitored by any tinnitus sufferer and by consultation with their doctor an alternative medication may be appropriate.Chemotherapy, antiviral drugs, and diuretics also may contribute. And psychedelic drugs as well as being generally harmful can worsen tinnitus symptoms.Menieres disease, neurological disorders and metabolic disorders are other causes as well as physical injury to the ear, head or neck.It's pretty clear that if we aren't sure of the cause, finding a cure or lasting tinnitus relief has been and still is for some a quite a challenge. Fortunately research by previous patients has produced very positive results and there are some good books written by past sufferers who have found a cure for tinnitus.
