Is tinnitus in one ear not too serious?

Whether persistent tinnitus on one side of the ear is serious or not needs to be judged according to the ** that caused the tinnitus. If it is due to the blockage of a foreign body in the ear canal on one side, the presence of a large number of cerumen, and the occurrence of acute and chronic otitis media, which causes tinnitus, it is usually not very serious, and the above conditions will not cause serious damage to the patient's body, and can be achieved by simple, such as taking out the foreign body or earwax in the ear canal, taking antibiotics to control the inflammation, and the disease can be achieved. However, if unilateral tinnitus is caused by a malignant disease such as acoustic neuroma in one ear canal, the disease is relatively serious.

If there are no other symptoms such as dizziness, the symptoms are relatively mild, but they are abnormal. The general recommendation is that it can be done by modifying diet and exercise**.

Many people have tinnitus, some people have one ear, and some people have two ears, it is said that tinnitus in one ear is much worse than tinnitus in both ears, is this true?

What's going on with tinnitus in one ear.

Tinnitus is one of the common symptoms of otolaryngology, sometimes unilateral and sometimes bilateral, if tinnitus is an ear, it is usually accompanied by the auditory nerve and facial nerve, and it is likely to be a violation of its function.

Ruptured or blood** The auditory nerve and auditory sensation of the brain cause spasms, which can lead to circulatory problems and nerve compression, which eventually leads to the appearance of tinnitus. This is usually caused by the sudden appearance of patients who are partially or completely deaf. When tinnitus in one ear is caused by such a vascular disease, it may mean that the disease will progress or spread to the other ear.

Noise travels to the brain, where it can cause any compression or circulatory problems, and hearing, which is part of the cerebral cortex where the auditory nerve occurs, can cause tinnitus. After the symptoms of tinnitus appear, many patients will feel stressed and depressed, at this time the patient should go to a professional ear, nose and throat hospital for diagnosis, maintain a good attitude, so as to help the tinnitus**.

Some people's tinnitus may be permanent and chronic, and if we don't regulate our emotions at this time, depression is very likely.

In some cases, do not be in a loud sound space, and if this is unavoidable, protect your ears with earplugs, headphones, etc. If you feel an increase in noise when you stay in a noisy environment, try to avoid similar situations in the future; Try to avoid nervous tension; You need to have enough rest time to avoid fatigue; Avoid taking stimulants that affect the nervous system, such as drinking coffee and smoking.

Be alert to tinnitus in the right ear causing deafness, and target **promptly**.

Tinnitus in one ear can lead to deafness if it is not developed in time**. It is not uncommon for patients with deafness due to untimely tinnitus in one ear**. People should eliminate the misconception that tinnitus in one ear is just a minor illness that often has a sound in the ear and does not affect life, and actively seek **.

The effectiveness of tinnitus in one ear is based on finding and determining the condition, which requires the patient to go to a professional ear, nose and throat hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

If tinnitus only appears once in a long time, and the time is very short, then we don't need to go to the hospital**, we just adjust our living habits. However, if it is a long-term and continuous one, you must need to seek medical attention, and if you don't ** at this time, there will be a great danger.

It is often unconscious in the early stage, and hearing loss can be felt during the seizure period, which is mostly one-sided. Although the patient has tinnitus, he feels harsh to high-frequency sounds, and even feels very harsh when he hears loud sounds, which is a phenomenon that is revitalized. Hearing usually recovers during intervals, but when hearing decreases again in a relapse occurs, a characteristic hearing fluctuation occurs.

Suggestion: Go to the local hospital**, after a cold to develop tinnitus, ear swelling, and inaudible sound, first of all, to rule out the possibility of exudative otitis media, in addition to the routine specialist examination, the most simple and effective diagnostic means is acoustic conductance test.

What causes unilateral tinnitus with a feeling of blockage?

Causes of tinnitus in one ear.

Inner ear microcirculation disorder: When a person is emotional or anxious, the secretion of adrenaline increases, which causes the arteriole blood vessels of the inner ear to spasm, and the blood flow in the small blood vessels is slow, resulting in red blood cells in the blood, which adhere to each other with platelets, and blood flow disorders occur, and the lack of oxygen supply to the inner ear leads to tinnitus. Some elderly people, especially those with arteriosclerosis, are very prone to inner ear blood circulation, which can cause tinnitus.

Viral infection: The virus has a strong affinity for the red blood cells and auditory nerve in the blood vessels of the inner ear, many patients have a history of cold before the onset of the disease, when the virus invades the inner ear, it has an affinity with red blood cells and platelets, coagulates into a clump, blocks the blood vessels of the inner ear, and leads to the occurrence of tinnitus. In addition, the virus has an affinity with the auditory nerve, which can make the auditory nerve congested and edematous, which is also the cause of tinnitus.

It can also be drunk together.

After a while, I believe that your hearing will be restored, and I hope it will help you.

Unilateral tinnitus may generally be related to sudden deafness, neuropathic tinnitus, or cerebral insufficiency, as follows:

1. Sudden deafness: the symptoms include unilateral hearing loss, which can be accompanied by tinnitus, and individual patients will have dizziness, nausea, vomiting, etc. Under the guidance of a doctor, oral prednisone, salvia tablets, methylcobalamin tablets, vitamin B1 and other drugs can be selected.

2. Neurogenic tinnitus: Neurogenic tinnitus may cause unilateral tinnitus, and may also be accompanied by headache, deafness and other symptoms.

3. Insufficient cerebral blood supply: symptoms may also have recurrent dizziness, accompanied by upset, tinnitus, etc., you can choose oral nimodipine tablets, flunarizine hydrochloride capsules, etc. under the guidance of doctors. There are many causes of tinnitus in one ear:

Staying up late: Staying up late is a common problem for many young people nowadays, and it will lead to tinnitus due to staying up late for a long time and the body is in a state of fatigue. Night is the physiological rest time of the human body, and if you don't rest, you will be overtired, resulting in poor blood circulation around the eyes, causing dark circles, eye bags or white eyeballs covered with bloodshots.

Frequent alcoholism: If you like to drink, be aware that long-term alcoholism can lead to chronic alcoholism, which can lead to hearing loss, which can lead to hearing loss over time, and may eventually develop into neural hearing loss. Excessive weight control:

In order to pursue slimness, many girls often control their diet, eat less, stay away from meat, and after a long time, although they lose weight, their resistance and nutrition are insufficient, and there will be a crisis in blood circulation and calorie supply, which will have a negative impact on the ears.

The location of tinnitus can be left, right, bilateral, intracranial, postcranial, extracranial, and the cause of tinnitus in one ear is no different from the cause of tinnitus in other parts, but the form of manifestation is different. They can all be caused by poor lifestyle habits, otogenic diseases, non-otogenic diseases. Common bad lifestyle habits mainly include staying up late, lack of exercise, and heavy eating.

Otogenous diseases include outer ear lesions, middle ear lesions, inner ear lesions, retrocochlear lesions, and central auditory pathway lesions. Non-otogenic lesions such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, anemia and other diseases can be caused, and large emotional fluctuations can also be caused. In the process, if tinnitus affects sleep and mood, the system can use masking and cognition while doing a good job of five interventions and one elimination.

Common causes of tinnitus are as follows:

1. Excessive fatigue, lack of sleep, and excessive emotional tension can also lead to tinnitus.

2. Diseases of the ear, such as diseases of the outer ear: otitis externa, cerumen embolism, foreign body of the outer ear, acute and chronic inflammation of the middle ear, perforation of the eardrum, otosclerosis, and acoustic neuroma can cause tinnitus.

3. Vascular diseases such as jugular spheroid tumors, dilatation of small blood vessels in the ear, vascular malformations, hemangiomas, etc., tinnitus will occur, and tinnitus from veins is mostly noisy.

4. Some systemic diseases can also cause tinnitus: cerebral blood supply deficiency, pre-stroke, hypertension, hypotension, diabetes.

Unilateral tinnitus is caused by noise, foreign body in the external auditory canal, various otitis media, insufficient blood in the inner ear and brain (arteriosclerosis, anemia, etc.), auditory nerve damage, early stage of acoustic neuroma, and brain tumors. Different plans should be adopted according to different situations, such as avoiding noisy environments or wearing anti-noise earplugs, removing foreign bodies in the external auditory canal, timely ** various otitis media, improving the inner ear and brain blood**, stopping the use of ototoxic drugs to control viral infection, timely removal of acoustic neuroma and brain tumors, etc. It is best for you to go to the otolaryngology department of a regular hospital, and it is better to make a reasonable ** plan after the examination confirms the diagnosis.
