Ear specialist in Frankfurt specialising in the treatment of tinnitus and sudden hearing loss

Tinnitus treatment Frankfurt

Tinnitus is a hearing disorder that occurs on one or both sides. You hear noises such as hissing, beeping or ringing - but there are no recognisable external sound waves. Tinnitus is not a disease in its own right. It is more of a symptom and occurs, for example, with a middle ear infection or sudden hearing loss. People also often notice it when they are under prolonged stress. A precise diagnosis is important here. The underlying disease should be treated. Tinnitus is therefore usually treated with special medication. Physiotherapeutic measures can also be added. It is also possible to Tinnitus therapy with botulinum. Dr Fischer will also be happy to inform you about this.

Hearing loss therapy Frankfurt

A sudden hearing loss is a hearing impairment that usually occurs spontaneously. It is an inner ear hearing loss that can occur in one ear or, more rarely, in both ears at the same time. A sudden hearing loss is characterised by a dull pressure on the ear and the feeling of suddenly hearing sounds as if through cotton wool. Surrounding noises suddenly sound quiet and unclear. This can be accompanied by tinnitus, dizziness and nausea. If you experience these symptoms and they do not subside within a few hours, we advise you to visit our practice as a matter of urgency. A sudden loss of hearing can lead to complete deafness. A sudden loss of hearing is treated after a detailed diagnosis, e.g. with cortisone infusion therapy, medication or an intratympanic cortisone injection.
