이명 때문에 걱정이시군요..ㅎ 이명은 빠른 치료가 중요하니 빨리 병원부터 가보시길 권합니다 건강하세요
Hello?
A man in his late 40s.
Tinnitus started in my right ear around February 2023.
The sound of "Woong Woong (Buk Buk)" is irregularly heard and there is a slight vibration.
I went to a nearby ENT clinic first and had a hearing test, but I was told there was no problem and was prescribed medication for a week. (The medication was ineffective.)
After that, it persisted for a while, but then the tinnitus disappeared, so I didn't go to the hospital again.
As the year 2024 began, I started experiencing tinnitus again, so I went to a nearby university hospital (ㅇㅈ Hospital) for further tests (blood test, hearing test, ultrasound?). They said there was no particular abnormality. (I brought the test results and medical records from last week.)
I was prescribed medication and took it for the first two weeks, but then I stopped. (The medications are Ginexin-E 80mg, Mygrizine 25mg, Noiromin 300mg, Otillen F 90mg)
The doctor's prescription was to 'ignore it,' and I was only advised to have a hearing test again after three months.
I have now learned what "ignore" means by watching several YouTube videos.
But I don't know how I should live from now on.
Last week, I visited the nearby hospital again, but there were no significant findings, and I was only told to go to a specialized hospital if it gets worse.
What I learned while studying is,
When I listen to 200Hz sound (YouTube tinnitus treatment sound), I do not hear the tinnitus.
Additionally, when I hear the sound of the air purifier, I don't experience tinnitus. Maybe that's why, when I go to the library, I don't hear tinnitus, and I can concentrate well, which is good.
What should I do from now on? Please give me your advice.
Any questions you have...
1. If there are no sleep disturbances, tinnitus is not actually very bothersome.
Is it okay to keep playing the tinnitus treatment sound (200Hz) on YouTube continuously, especially during sleep?
2. I want to have this sound as an audio file. Where can I find it?
3. As I become more sensitive to sounds, I keep drinking alcohol to try to fall asleep (drinking helps me sleep better). I was told not to focus on the tinnitus, but even if sleep is difficult, is it better to completely quit alcohol?
I do not smoke and drink one cup of Americano coffee a day. (I have quit coffee.)
4. Is there a hospital where I can receive consultation with a copy of my medical records from the tests I had? (I live in Nowon, Seoul. I am curious about both nearby hospitals and tertiary hospitals.)
I have visited several hospitals, but I only received mechanical and brief responses, which has led to distrust in ENT specialists.
It's a frustrating feeling.
Please give me your advice.

일랑일랑(써니)어떤 느낌인지는 정확하게는 모르지만 엄청 불편하다고 하던데 힘드시겠어요.
이베트미욘이명원 원인과 치료가 아직 밝혀지지 않았대요. 실재 존재하는 소리가 아니라 가 실체를 밝히기가 어렵다네요.
지원유진빠^^저도 이명으로 고생하고 있는데 이명은 거기에 대해 신경쓰면 더 심해지더군요~ 그냥 신경쓰지말고 일상생활 해보세요~ 딴건 다 모르겠는데 술먹으면 확실히 더 커집니다! 그래서 전 되도록 술은 먹지 않습니다~

저도 이명으로 고생많이 했고 지금도 같이 달고 삽니다. 거의 젊었을때부터 였으니깐 거의 25년이 지났네요ㅜ.ㅜ 몇년전 돌발성 난청이 세차례 정도 오고나서 더 심해졌네요..... 진짜 치료란 치료는 다 해봤는데 잘 안되더군요..... 신경쓰지않으면 작아지고 신경쓰면 커지고.... 신경쓰지않는게 더 좋고 제 경험상 술 먹으면 확실히 몇일동안 커집니다. 카페인은 안좋다고 하는데 한번 먹어봤는데 커지지는 않더군요... 근데 카페인은 아예 안먹기는 합니다. 맘 편하게 먹고 그냥 평생 가지고 간다고 생각하고 신경쓰지마세요!!
