Hearing HarborMedical note: This page is educational and is not medical advice. Tinnitus and hearing changes can have medical causes. Sudden hearing loss, tinnitus with neurologic symptoms, or other urgent symptoms should be evaluated promptly by a healthcare professional.
What to know
Cognitive behavioral therapy has stronger guideline support for persistent bothersome tinnitus than dietary supplements. CBT targets reactions, distress and coping rather than claiming to remove an underlying sound generator.
Practical next step
