Does anyone know if exercise or a chiropractor can cure tinnitus?

Hi , I have had tinnitus for 5 long years now . I have always felt it was due to stress and tension. On Monday while using my easy shaper exerciser my ears suddenly stopped ringing. Sadly the ringing returned a few hours later, but the silence for those few short hours was wonderful . Since the ringing stopped completely for that time , i am certain its not permanent. Has anyone either doctor or patient had any success with a chirpractor?

I’ve had it since I was a lad, so much to the point I wanted to blow my brains out as a teen. My saving grace was finding a large HEPA filter that makes a ton of white noise, and I’m able to get a good night’s sleep.
I despise quiet rooms…the silence turns into ringing and roaring in no time. Some days it is better, some worse.
Tinnitus is permanent damage to your hearing; mine from childhood sickness. I know some vets that got theirs in the service, and some older musicians that are starting to exhibit it. I’ve been told and read that hearing damage is not repairable.
I’ve been to doctors, chiropractors, tried herbal remedies and for me, nothing has worked. The only thing they did was take my money.
I’m wondering for you if it might be allergy related? I’m thinking the exercise got your sinuses cleared. Does it always go away when you exercise? Possibly an over the counter medicine might help. I hope so…I don’t wish this on anybody.
there isn’t a cure for tinitus but it can be relieved, you would have to see your doctor, I thought a chiropractor dealt with the joints and bones.Maybe you should keep up the exercise to see what happens at least you will be keeping fit if it doesn’t cure your tinitus and if you are a bit overweight you will be pleasd with the results
I’m sorry but I do not know what a chirpractor is but i’m a great believer in exercise and think it could well have helped. I suffer from vertigo myself,and think it helps.
Unfortunately there normally are no cures for true tinnitus. It is possible that you have moved moved particles in your semi-circular canals. This is done in the Eppley Manoeuvre for vertigo. If you want to discuss this possibility and if it could be tried to give you longer term relief you would need to talk to an ENT surgeon familiar with the technique.
I doubt that a chiropractor can help you, but if exercise helps, go for it. My son has it and I agree with the answer about white noise. My son always has music or the TV on when h e sleeps. There is also an herbal remedy called Clear Tinnitus that he takes that helps when it really gets bad for him.
Dont dispair tinnitus can get better all on its own.
