How to treat brain tinnitus and ear ringing

Under normal circumstances, cerebral tinnitus or ear ringing may be caused by long-term mental stress, excessive fatigue, external otitis, otitis media, or neurogenic tinnitus. It is recommended to seek timely medical attention, identify the underlying cause, and receive symptomatic treatment under a doctor's guidance. Specific analysis is as follows:

1. Long-term mental stress: Prolonged anxiety, depression, or other negative emotional states can disrupt nervous system regulation, leading to cerebral or ear tinnitus. It is important to adjust one’s mindset and relieve stress through physical exercise, listening to soothing music, etc. Psychological counseling may be necessary when needed.

2. Excessive fatigue: Chronic sleep deprivation or overexertion—either physically or mentally—can reduce bodily functions and make the auditory nerves more susceptible to disturbances, resulting in cerebral or ear tinnitus. Ensure adequate sleep, manage work and rest schedules reasonably, and avoid excessive physical exhaustion.

3. External otitis: Often caused by bacterial infection, inflammation irritating the outer ear canal mucosa may lead to cerebral or ear tinnitus, accompanied by ear pain and increased ear discharge. Patients should follow medical advice to use medications such as lomefloxacin hydrochloride ear drops, ofloxacin ear drops, or cefradine capsules.

4. Otitis media: Often triggered by colds or water entering the ear canal, middle ear inflammation can impair hearing and cause symptoms including cerebral or ear tinnitus, ear fullness, and pus discharge. Patients may use medications such as amoxicillin-clavulanate potassium tablets, cefuroxime axetil tablets, or chloramphenicol ear drops as directed by a physician.

5. Neurogenic tinnitus: Related to abnormal auditory nerve function, this condition often presents as persistent cerebral or ear tinnitus that may affect sleep and daily life. Patients can take medications such as mecobalamin tablets, vitamin B1 tablets, or ginkgo biloba extract tablets under medical supervision to alleviate symptoms.

In daily life, it is important to protect the ears by avoiding prolonged exposure to noisy environments and keeping the volume at a moderate level when listening to music. Additionally, maintaining a regular sleep schedule, balanced diet, and engaging in appropriate physical activity can strengthen the body’s resistance and help reduce the occurrence of cerebral and ear tinnitus.
