Natural Treatment for Tinnitus What are the treatments for tinnitus? Tinnitus is a common complaint, and up to 20% of Americans have experienced it. This symptom may last for only weeks or months and then resolve spontaneously, though for some individuals it may last for years. The tinnitus may be significant enough to interfere with an individual's activities of daily living. For this reason, treatment may be directed at decreasing the effect of tinnitus on daily life. The depression

and

insomnia

that

are

sometimes associated with tinnitus may also need to be addressed.
