Tinnitus is not necessarily a problem with the ears👂

Have you ever thought that tinnitus is caused by something other than ear problems?
 
There are too many people with emotional/psychological illnesses who don’t know it. Most people who seek medical treatment for various physical problems that do not receive medical treatment are ultimately found to be caused by psychological problems. This also supports the statement that 95% of health problems begin because of problems in the mind.
 
Several cases of tinnitus have been confirmed by specialists that their ears are healthy and have no problems. But they are indeed troubled by tinnitus! This is how the same thing?
 
The patients are very confused and afraid about why the medicine has no effect, and the inspection report cannot find any problems. So I was very anxious to seek medical attention. The more anxious I was, the more serious the tinnitus became. In this situation, if patients only focus on finding medical solutions for tinnitus, they will not get any curative effect at all.
 
In fact, the biggest harm of tinnitus is not the continuous sound, but the emotional irritability, irritability, anxiety, depression and other excessive reactions caused by the sound acting on the limbic system. Tinnitus is not only a disease, but also a "heart disease".
 
Avoid any negative connotations when answering tinnitus patients’ questions, such as “there is no treatment”, “there is no solution”, etc. Let them know that it can be dealt with, and at the same time pay attention to the patient's mental and psychological problems, and provide differentiated induction and treatment.
 
"Patient's mental and psychological problems"
They may originally have certain psychological characteristics or disorders. These psychological factors will directly affect the patient's response to tinnitus, such as: somatic psychological disorders, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and depression.
 
"Somatic Psychosis"
Patients' subjective symptom complaints often have no objective disease basis or far exceed the extent that can be explained by objective disease theory. It is generally believed that somatic psychological disorders originate from the psychological and emotional feelings that exist in the patient's subconscious mind that are difficult to accept.
 
"Anxiety causes tinnitus"
Multiple studies have shown that the emergence of anxiety affects the brain's ability to recognize useful information, causing the brain to send bad signals to the auditory nervous system, leading to auditory system hypersensitivity or even agnosia, which will trigger and aggravate tinnitus.
 
The more severe the tinnitus, the stronger the patient's anxiety. This study believes that anxiety is not an accompanying symptom of tinnitus, but an important factor affecting the outcome of tinnitus. People with moderate to severe anxiety are 4 times more likely to suffer from tinnitus than normal people.
 
"Sleep disorder, an important cause of tinnitus"
Sleep disorders are another important factor affecting the occurrence of tinnitus. Lack of sleep causes metabolites in the brain to be unable to be cleared and accumulate continuously, which enhances the sympathetic response of the auditory system. This situation may lead to and aggravate the occurrence of tinnitus.
 
"Anxiety-sleep disorder-tinnitus, forming a vicious cycle"
Tinnitus caused by anxiety may aggravate the severity of tinnitus and produce high anxiety levels, entering a vicious cycle. This vicious cycle causes the psychological stress of tinnitus patients to seriously threaten the patient's physical and mental health.
 
The occurrence of most sleep disorders is closely related to continuous psychological stress, which is also the main reason why tinnitus patients are often accompanied by anxiety and sleep disorder symptoms. Through correct assessment of tinnitus patients' anxiety levels and sleep disorders, high-risk groups can be identified and early psychological intervention can be carried out to prevent adverse consequences.
 
Clinically, anxiety level plays an important regulatory role in the adaptation, development and treatment of tinnitus. During the initial diagnosis and treatment of tinnitus, the importance of psychological intervention and counseling cannot be ignored.
 
Unfortunately, patients often find it difficult to accept the fact that their tinnitus is due to their psychological condition and avoid it or find various reasons to avoid it.
The answer is actually obvious. Learn to be aware of your inner emotions and mental psychology, honestly face your own feelings of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, your own right and wrong thoughts, bravely communicate your psychological feelings with your family, and appropriately release stress.
 
Often, curing a disease is just a matter of thought!
