Do Hearing Aids help tinnitus?
For those troubled by tinnitus, relief may be found through hearing aids, especially if accompanied by hearing loss.
Some hearing aids can be programmed to mask bothersome sounds with more pleasant ones. These include white noise or other sounds that may reduce the buzzing, ringing, humming, or other tinnitus sounds.
Often, wearing hearing aids can help with tinnitus. Hearing loss typically occurs slowly over time, making it difficult to recognize the sounds you don’t hear. Hearing aids work to increase those sounds back to a normal range, which often helps drown out tinnitus.
