For some, tinnitus is simply ignored. That would make it like living next to the railroad; people who live there do not notice hearing the train as it goes by until a stranger remarks on the noise. For others, tinnitus is troubling only when it is quiet. Running a fan or watching television, listening to music or books on tape may help some ignore the tinnitus and fall asleep. Some wear standard hearing aids for an acoustically enriched environment and report no further tinnitus disturbance. But for others, tinnitus is overwhelming. Their reaction to the tinnitus intensifies. The limbic system associates a truly negative emotion with the sound, leading to increased involvement from the autonomic nervous system. Thus the tinnitus overwhelms, with a vicious cycle of sound, reaction, more sound, increased reaction. Sleep is often disturbed, enjoyment of life is compromised. For these people, help is available; make an appointment for a comprehensive tinnitus evaluation and learn what may be beneficial for you. There are many treatments available and success has been demonstrated for many patients. Whether using Tinnitus Retraining Therapy, targeted acoustically enriched environments, Neuromonics, sound generators, PAXX or Serenade, or combination devices, each patient receives a personalized treatment recommendation. Melanie Herzfeld, Au.D., board certified audiologist, specializes in tinnitus at 113 Crossways Park Drive, Suite 101, Woodbury, NY 516-364-0011, call for your tinnitus evaluation.
