FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Tinnitus or ringing of the ears is a condition that can result from a wide range of underlying causes such as age-related hearing loss, ear injury or a circulatory system disorder.
The annoying caused by the problem which affects about 1 in 5 people may also lead to emotional difficulties and cognitive problems.
A new study of 117 patients with tinnitus showed that tolls of insomnia will worsen if the patient also suffers from poor sleep.
“Tinnitus involves cognitive, emotional, and psycho-physiological processes, which can result in an increase in a patient’s distress,” said study co-author Dr. Kathleen L. Yaremchuk, head of the Department of Otolaryngology-Head Neck Surgery at Henry Ford.
“Sleep complaints, including insomnia, in these patients may result in a decrease in their tolerance to tinnitus.”
According to the results presented at the Combined Otolaryngological Spring Meetings in San Diego, the more severe the patients’ insomnia, the greater are their complaints about tinnitus symptoms and emotional distress.
“Treating patients with tinnitus is challenging,” Yaremchuk said. “A chronic tinnitus patient presents a challenging clinical picture that may include anxiety, depression, annoyance, or self-reported emotional distress.”
One of most frequent self-reported complaints of tinnitus patient is “getting to sleep.”
Researchers suggest that warding off sleeping problems in tinnitus patients can significantly improve their tolerance to the condition and help treat their other symptoms.
