The following method may reduce the ringing in your ears, suggests Dr. Jan Strydom, of A2Z of Health, Beauty and Fintess.org. Place the palms of your hands over your ears with fingers resting gently on the back of your head. Your middle fingers should point toward one another just above the base of your skull. Place your index fingers on top of you middle fingers and snap them (the index fingers) onto the skull making a loud, drumming noise. Repeat 40-50 times. Some people experience immediate relief with this method. Repeat several times a day for as long as necessary to reduce tinnitus.

I don’t have ringing in my ears but I tried the trick anyway. Now my ears are ringing.

Any other tricks to get them to stop?

Just kidding ... sorry.

I just tried it.

It reduced my tinnitus considerably, but my torn rotator cuff is now screaming at me. It did NOT like me having my arms in the required position.

That’s a minor problem, though, because I’m sure my wife and/or teenaged son will be happy to cover my ears and thump me in the back of the head...

It works for me but caused my hearing aid to feed back

My ears have been ringing since My days as an Artillery crewman in Vietnam fifty years ago. I just tried the finger snap method you described and, amazingly, experienced a few minutes of relief!

It helps. For me it reduces the volume.
