Title: What causes tinnitus and can it be treated?
Post by: John Reid on 20/04/2009 22:30:02
John Reid  asked the Naked Scientists:
   
Chris,

I am a regular listener to you on Cape Talk / 702 and have to admire your range of knowledge.

I have been trying to have my question addressed for many weeks without any luck and just know that many, many  thousands of people like me who suffer from tinnitus would like to know if there have been any advances in the understanding of this condition and if so are there any treatments that have proved  successful.

Kind regards
