Tinnitus, common yet annoying

January 27th, 2008

DEAR DR. GOTT: I am in desperate need of your advice on stopping constant buzzing in my ears. It is interfering with my entire life.

My sister has given me the address from your column in hopes that a copy of the article could be sent to me or if you could once again give the solution in your column. Please help.

DEAR READER: You are suffering from a common medical ailment called tinnitus. Your first step ought to be a consultation with an ear-nose-and-throat specialist. Meanwhile I recommend Lipo-Flavonoid — an over-the-counter product to reduce or eliminate the buzzing.
